742459 divided by 28 
Our goal is to divide 742459 by 28.

Going ahead to step 1:
7 divided by 28 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 28

Let's proceed to step 2:
28 goes into 74 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 56 from 74 to get 18.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 182 / 28

On to step 3:
When dividing 182 by 28, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 168 from 182, we get 14.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 144 / 28

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 144 by 28, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 265.0
Subtract 140 from 144 to get 4.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 45 / 28

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 45 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2651.0
If we take 28 away from 45, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 179 / 28

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 179 by 28, we get 6 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26516.0
If we subtract 168 from 179, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
110 divided by 28 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26516.3
Subtract 84 from 110 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
260 divided by 28 is 9 with a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26516.39
Deduct 252 from 260 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
28 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26516.392
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 240 by 28, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26516.3928
Subtract 224 from 240 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.

Step 11:
28 can be fit into 160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26516.39285
If we subtract 140 from 160, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26516.392857
If we take 196 away from 200, we end up 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26516.3928571
If we take 28 away from 40, 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26516.39285714
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 112 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 26516.39285714 and a remainder of 8e-09.
