Let's divide 74254 by 55
Our goal is to divide 74254 by 55.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 74 / 55

Step 2:
If we divide 74 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 55 away from 74, we end up with 19.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 192 / 55

Let's proceed to step 3:
192 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 165 from 192.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 275 / 55

On to step 4:
If we divide 275 by 55, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 135.0
Deduct 275 from 275 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 55 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1350.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 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 6:
The number 55 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1350.0
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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1350.07
If we take 385 away from 400, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1350.072
If we take 110 away from 150, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
55 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1350.0727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1350.07272
Deduct 110 from 150 and we're left 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 11:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1350.072727
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1350.0727272
Subtracting 110 from 150 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.

On to step 13:
55 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1350.07272727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1350.07272727 and a remainder of 1.5e-08.
