We're dividing 404580 by 74 
We want to divide 404580 by 74.

On to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 74

On to step 2:
74 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 404 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
74 goes into 404 5 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 370 from 404 leaves us with 34.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 345 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
74 goes into 345 4 times with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 296 from 345.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 498 / 74

Step 5:
When dividing 498 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 546.0
Subtract 444 from 498 to get 54.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 540 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
74 can be fit into 540 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5467.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 518 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
74 can be fit into 220 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5467.2
If we subtract 148 from 220, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 74 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5467.29
Subtract 666 from 720 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 540 7 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5467.297
If we subtract 518 from 540, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
74 can be fit into 220 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5467.2972
Deduct 148 from 220 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
720 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 54.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5467.29729
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 666 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 12:
74 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5467.297297
If we take 518 away from 540, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
74 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5467.2972972
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 148 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 720 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5467.29729729
Subtract 666 from 720 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5467.29729729 with a balance of 5.4e-08.
