74257214 ÷ 502 
We want to divide 74257214 by 502.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 502, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 502

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 502, we get 0 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 742 / 502

On to step 3:
When dividing 742 by 502, we get 1 with a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 502 from 742 to get 240.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 240 and repeat the process: 2405 / 502

Step 4:
If we divide 2405 by 502, we get 4 and a remainder of 397.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 2008 from 2405 to get 397.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 397 and continue: 3977 / 502

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 502 fits into 3977 7 times, leaving a remainder of 463.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 147.0
Subtract 3514 from 3977 to get 463.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 463, then repeat: 4632 / 502

Going ahead to step 6:
4632 divided by 502 is 9 with a remainder of 114.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1479.0
Subtract 4518 from 4632 to get 114.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 114 and repeat the process: 1141 / 502

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 1141 by 502, we get 2 and a remainder of 137.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14792.0
Subtracting 1004 from 1141 leaves us with 137.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 137 and continue with: 1374 / 502

Advancing to step 8:
502 goes into 1374 2 times with a remainder of 370.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 147922.0
Subtract 1004 from 1374 to get 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
502 can be fit into 3700 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 186.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147922.7
Subtracting 3514 from 3700 leaves us with 186.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1860, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 1860 by 502, we get 3 and a remainder of 354.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 147922.73
If we subtract 1506 from 1860, we get 354.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
502 goes into 3540 7 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 147922.737
Deduct 3514 from 3540 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
260 divided by 502 is 0 with a remainder of 260.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147922.737
Deduct 0 from 260 and we're left with 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 2600 by 502, we get 5 and a remainder of 90.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 147922.73705
Subtracting 2510 from 2600 leaves us with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 900 by 502, we get 1 and a remainder of 398.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147922.737051
If we subtract 502 from 900, we get 398.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 3980 by 502, we get 7 with a remainder of 466.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147922.7370517
Subtracting 3514 from 3980 leaves us with 466.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
502 can be fit into 4660 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 142.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147922.73705179
If we subtract 4518 from 4660, we get 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Our division results in 147922.73705179 with a remaining 1.42e-07.
