281758 ÷ 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 281758 can be divided by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
74 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 281 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
281 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 222 from 281 and we're left with 59.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 59 and continue with: 597 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 597 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 5.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 592 from 597, we get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
55 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 380.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 558 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 558 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 40.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3807.0
If we subtract 518 from 558, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3807.5
If we take 370 away from 400, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
74 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3807.54
Subtract 296 from 300 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3807.54
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
74 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3807.5405
If we take 370 away from 400, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3807.54054
Subtracting 296 from 300 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3807.54054
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
74 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3807.5405405
Deduct 370 from 400 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.

On to step 14:
The number 74 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3807.54054054
If we take 296 away from 300, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 3807.54054054 with a remainder of 4e-09.
