We're dividing 740505 by 252 
Let's see how many times 252 fits into 740505.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 252 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 252

Advancing to step 2:
The number 252 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 740 / 252

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 740 by 252, we get 2 with a remainder of 236.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 504 from 740, we get 236.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 236, then repeat: 2365 / 252

On to step 4:
252 goes into 2365 9 times with a remainder of 97.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 2268 from 2365 to get 97.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 97 and repeat the process: 970 / 252

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 970 by 252, we get 3 with a remainder of 214.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 293.0
Deduct 756 from 970 and we're left with 214.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 214, then carry on: 2145 / 252

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 2145 by 252, we get 8 with a remainder of 129.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2938.0
If we take 2016 away from 2145, we end up with 129.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 1290 by 252, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2938.5
Deduct 1260 from 1290 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
300 divided by 252 is 1 with a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2938.51
Subtracting 252 from 300 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
252 can be fit into 480 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2938.511
Deduct 252 from 480 and we're left with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2938.511 with a remaining 0.0228.
