We divide 742012 by 24
We're looking to find how many times 24 goes into 742012.

Moving on to step 1:
24 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 24

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 24, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 72 from 74.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 24

Moving on to step 3:
22 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 220 / 24

Moving on to step 4:
220 divided by 24 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 309.0
Subtract 216 from 220 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 41 / 24

On to step 5:
24 goes into 41 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3091.0
Subtract 24 from 41 to get 17.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 172 / 24

Moving on to step 6:
24 can be fit into 172 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30917.0
Subtracting 168 from 172 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 24 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30917.1
Subtract 24 from 40 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 160 by 24, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30917.16
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 160 by 24, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30917.166
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 30917.166 with a balance of 0.0016.
