Let's divide 31085042 by 74
Our goal is to divide 31085042 by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
3 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 310 / 74

Step 3:
If we divide 310 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 14.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 296 from 310 to get 14.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 148 / 74

Step 4:
If we divide 148 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we take 148 away from 148, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 5 / 74

Step 5:
74 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 420.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 74

On to step 6:
50 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4200.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 504 / 74

On to step 7:
74 can be fit into 504 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42006.0
If we take 444 away from 504, we end up with 60.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 60, then repeat: 602 / 74

On to step 8:
602 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 420068.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 592 from 602.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
74 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 420068.1
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 74 from 100.
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 10:
The number 74 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 420068.13
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 222 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
380 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 420068.135
Deduct 370 from 380 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 420068.1351
If we take 74 away from 100, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 13:
74 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 420068.13513
Subtracting 222 from 260 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 380 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 420068.135135
If we take 370 away from 380, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 74 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 420068.1351351
Subtract 74 from 100 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.

Let's proceed to step 16:
74 can be fit into 260 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 420068.13513513
Subtracting 222 from 260 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 420068.13513513, with a leftover of 3.8e-08.
