We divide 305583 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 305583 can be divided by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 30 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 305 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 305 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 296 from 305, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 95 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 95 1 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 74 from 95.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 218 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
74 can be fit into 218 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 412.0
If we take 148 away from 218, we end up with 70.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 703 / 74

Step 6:
74 can be fit into 703 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4129.0
Subtract 666 from 703 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 74 fits into 370 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4129.5
Subtract 370 from 370 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
74 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4129.5
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
0 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4129.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4129.5 with a balance of 0.0.
