We divide 240525 by 74
Our goal is to divide 240525 by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 74

Step 2:
When dividing 24 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 240 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
74 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 222 from 240.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 185 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 185 2 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 148 from 185, we get 37.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 372 / 74

Step 5:
When dividing 372 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 325.0
Subtract 370 from 372 to get 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 74 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3250.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 250 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3250.3
Deduct 222 from 250 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3250.33
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3250.33 with a remaining 0.058.
