We're dividing 35420792 by 724 
We want to figure out the number of times 35420792 can be divided by 724.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 724, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 724

Going ahead to step 2:
724 can be fit into 35 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 0 from 35.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 354 / 724

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 354 by 724, we get 0 and a remainder of 354.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 354, we get 354.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 354, then repeat: 3542 / 724

Advancing to step 4:
The number 724 fits into 3542 4 times, leaving a remainder of 646.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 2896 from 3542 and we're left with 646.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 646, then repeat: 6460 / 724

Going ahead to step 5:
6460 divided by 724 is 8 with a remainder of 668.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 5792 away from 6460, we end up with 668.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 668, then repeat: 6687 / 724

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 6687 by 724, we get 9 with a remainder of 171.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 489.0
If we take 6516 away from 6687, we end up with 171.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 171, then repeat: 1719 / 724

Advancing to step 7:
1719 divided by 724 is 2 with a remainder of 271.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4892.0
Deduct 1448 from 1719 and we're left with 271.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 271 and repeat the process: 2712 / 724

Step 8:
If we divide 2712 by 724, we get 3 and a remainder of 540.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48923.0
If we take 2172 away from 2712, we end up with 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 724 fits into 5400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 332.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48923.7
If we take 5068 away from 5400, we end up with 332.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
724 can be fit into 3320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 424.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 48923.74
If we take 2896 away from 3320, we end up with 424.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
724 can be fit into 4240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 620.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48923.745
Subtract 3620 from 4240 to get 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
724 goes into 6200 8 times with a remainder of 408.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48923.7458
If we take 5792 away from 6200, we end up with 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
4080 divided by 724 is 5 with a remainder of 460.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48923.74585
If we subtract 3620 from 4080, we get 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
724 can be fit into 4600 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 256.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48923.745856
Subtract 4344 from 4600 to get 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 724 fits into 2560 3 times, leaving a remainder of 388.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 48923.7458563
The remainder is 388 after subtracting 2172 from 2560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Step 16:
3880 divided by 724 is 5 with a remainder of 260.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 48923.74585635
If we subtract 3620 from 3880, we get 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2600, and continue the process.

Our division results in 48923.74585635 with a remaining 2.6e-07.
