We divide 74261 by 54
Let's see how many times 54 fits into 74261.

On to step 1:
The number 54 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 54

On to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 54, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 54 away from 74, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 202 / 54

Advancing to step 3:
54 goes into 202 3 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 162 from 202.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 406 / 54

Going ahead to step 4:
406 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 28.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 137.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 378 from 406.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 281 / 54

Let's proceed to step 5:
54 can be fit into 281 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1375.0
Subtract 270 from 281 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
110 divided by 54 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1375.2
Deduct 108 from 110 and we're left with 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 7:
54 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1375.2
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
54 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1375.203
Subtract 162 from 200 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
54 can be fit into 380 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1375.2037
Subtract 378 from 380 to 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
20 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1375.2037
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 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 11:
If we divide 200 by 54, we get 3 and a remainder of 38.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1375.203703
Deduct 162 from 200 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
54 goes into 380 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1375.2037037
If we subtract 378 from 380, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
20 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1375.2037037
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1375.2037037 and a remainder of 2e-08.
