Let's divide 204256 by 74
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 204256.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 20 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 204 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 204 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 148 from 204.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 56, then carry on: 562 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 562 7 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Deduct 518 from 562 and we're left with 44.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 445 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 445 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 276.0
If we take 444 away from 445, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 16 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2760.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
160 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2760.2
If we subtract 148 from 160, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2760.21
If we subtract 74 from 120, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2760.216
Deduct 444 from 460 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
74 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2760.2162
Deduct 148 from 160 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2760.21621
If we subtract 74 from 120, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2760.216216
Subtracting 444 from 460 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2760.2162162
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2760.21621621
If we subtract 74 from 120, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2760.21621621, and the remainder is 4.6e-08.
