We look at the division of 596242 by 74 
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 596242.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 74

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 59 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 59 leaves us with 59.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 596 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 596 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 592 from 596 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 80.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 424 / 74

On to step 5:
424 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 54.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 805.0
If we take 370 away from 424, we end up with 54.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 542 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 542 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8057.0
Subtract 518 from 542 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
74 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8057.3
Deduct 222 from 240 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8057.32
Subtracting 148 from 180 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
74 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8057.324
Subtract 296 from 320 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
74 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8057.3243
If we subtract 222 from 240, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
74 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8057.32432
If we take 148 away from 180, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 320 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8057.324324
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 240 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8057.3243243
If we take 222 away from 240, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8057.32432432
If we take 148 away from 180, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8057.32432432, with a leftover of 3.2e-08.
