We look at the division of 74488357 by 259 
We want to figure out the number of times 74488357 can be divided by 259.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 259

On to step 2:
259 goes into 74 0 times with a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 74 and we're left with 74.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 744 / 259

Moving on to step 3:
259 can be fit into 744 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 226.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 518 from 744 to get 226.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 226, then repeat: 2268 / 259

Moving on to step 4:
2268 divided by 259 is 8 with a remainder of 196.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 196 after subtracting 2072 from 2268.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 196, then repeat: 1968 / 259

Let's proceed to step 5:
259 can be fit into 1968 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 155.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 287.0
Subtract 1813 from 1968 to get 155.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 155 and continue: 1553 / 259

On to step 6:
259 goes into 1553 5 times with a remainder of 258.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2875.0
Subtract 1295 from 1553 to get 258.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 258, then carry on: 2585 / 259

Step 7:
259 can be fit into 2585 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 254.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28759.0
Subtract 2331 from 2585 to get 254.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 254 and continue with: 2547 / 259

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 2547 by 259, we get 9 and a remainder of 216.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 287599.0
Subtract 2331 from 2547 to get 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 2160 by 259, we get 8 with a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 287599.8
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 2072 from 2160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
259 can be fit into 880 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 103.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 287599.83
If we take 777 away from 880, we end up with 103.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1030, and continue the process.

Step 11:
1030 divided by 259 is 3 with a remainder of 253.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 287599.833
If we take 777 away from 1030, we end up with 253.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 287599.833, with a leftover of 0.0253.
