742681 ÷ 28 
We're looking to find how many times 28 goes into 742681.

Step 1:
When dividing 7 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 28

Advancing to step 2:
74 divided by 28 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 56 from 74 and we're left with 18.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 182 / 28

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 182 by 28, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we take 168 away from 182, we end up with 14.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 146 / 28

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 146 by 28, we get 5 and a remainder of 6.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 265.0
Deduct 140 from 146 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 28

Advancing to step 5:
28 goes into 68 2 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2652.0
If we subtract 56 from 68, we get 12.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 121 / 28

Advancing to step 6:
121 divided by 28 is 4 with a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26524.0
Subtract 112 from 121 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
28 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26524.3
Subtracting 84 from 90 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 28 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 26524.32
If we take 56 away from 60, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
28 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26524.321
If we subtract 28 from 40, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 10:
28 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26524.3214
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 80 by 28, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26524.32142
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
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 12:
28 can be fit into 240 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26524.321428
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
160 divided by 28 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26524.3214285
Subtracting 140 from 160 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
28 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26524.32142857
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 196 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 26524.32142857, with a leftover of 4e-09.
