34423 ÷ 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 34423 can be divided by 74.

Step 1:
74 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 34 0 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 34 leaves us with 34.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 344 / 74

On to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 344 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 296 away from 344, we end up with 48.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 482 / 74

Step 4:
The number 74 fits into 482 6 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 444 from 482, we get 38.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 383 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
383 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 13.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 465.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 370 from 383.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 130 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 465.1
If we take 74 away from 130, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
74 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 465.17
If we take 518 away from 560, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
74 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 465.175
Deduct 370 from 420 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
74 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 465.1756
Subtracting 444 from 500 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 560 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 465.17567
If we take 518 away from 560, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 420 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 465.175675
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 370 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 465.1756756
Subtracting 444 from 500 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 465.17567567
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 518 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

The final result is 465.17567567 with a remainder of 4.2e-08.
