We divide 442595 by 74
We want to divide 442595 by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 74

Step 2:
44 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 44.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 44 to get 44.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 442 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
74 can be fit into 442 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 370 away from 442, we end up with 72.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 725 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 725 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 59.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we subtract 666 from 725, we get 59.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 599 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
74 can be fit into 599 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 598.0
Deduct 592 from 599 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 75 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
74 goes into 75 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5981.0
Subtract 74 from 75 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
74 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5981.0
Deduct 0 from 10 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.

On to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5981.01
Subtracting 74 from 100 leaves us 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 9:
If we divide 260 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5981.013
Subtract 222 from 260 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 380 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5981.0135
Subtract 370 from 380 to get 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 11:
When dividing 100 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 26.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5981.01351
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 12:
74 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5981.013513
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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 380 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5981.0135135
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.

Step 14:
74 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5981.01351351
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.

Our division results in 5981.01351351 with a remaining 2.6e-08.
