74879040 divided by 247 
We want to figure out the number of times 74879040 can be divided by 247.

Advancing to step 1:
247 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 247

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 247 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 74, we get 74.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 74, then repeat: 748 / 247

Let's proceed to step 3:
247 goes into 748 3 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 741 away from 748, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 77 / 247

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 77 by 247, we get 0 and a remainder of 77.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 77 to get 77.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 77, then repeat: 779 / 247

Let's proceed to step 5:
247 goes into 779 3 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 303.0
If we take 741 away from 779, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 380 / 247

Step 6:
If we divide 380 by 247, we get 1 and a remainder of 133.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3031.0
Subtracting 247 from 380 leaves us with 133.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 133, then repeat: 1334 / 247

Advancing to step 7:
247 goes into 1334 5 times with a remainder of 99.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30315.0
Subtracting 1235 from 1334 leaves us with 99.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 99 and repeat the process: 990 / 247

On to step 8:
247 goes into 990 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 303154.0
If we subtract 988 from 990, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
247 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 303154.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
200 divided by 247 is 0 with a remainder of 200.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 303154.0
Deduct 0 from 200 and we're left with 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 303154.0 with a balance of 0.2.
