742490 ÷ 24 
We want to divide 742490 by 24.

On to step 1:
The number 24 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 24

Step 2:
The number 24 fits into 74 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 72 away from 74, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 24

Let's proceed to step 3:
24 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Deduct 0 from 22 and we're left with 22.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 224 / 24

Step 4:
24 goes into 224 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 309.0
Deduct 216 from 224 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 24

On to step 5:
The number 24 fits into 89 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3093.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 72 from 89.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 170 / 24

Going ahead to step 6:
24 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30937.0
If we subtract 168 from 170, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 24 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30937.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 24, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 30937.08
Deduct 192 from 200 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 24, we get 3 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30937.083
Subtracting 72 from 80 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
80 divided by 24 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30937.0833
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 30937.0833 and a remainder of 8e-05.
