We're dividing 74222446 by 288 
We want to divide 74222446 by 288.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 288, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 288

Let's proceed to step 2:
288 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 74 and we're left with 74.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 742 / 288

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 742 by 288, we get 2 with a remainder of 166.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 576 from 742 leaves us with 166.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 166 and repeat the process: 1662 / 288

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 1662 by 288, we get 5 with a remainder of 222.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 1440 from 1662 and we're left with 222.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 222 and continue: 2222 / 288

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 2222 by 288, we get 7 with a remainder of 206.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257.0
Deduct 2016 from 2222 and we're left with 206.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 206, then carry on: 2064 / 288

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 2064 by 288, we get 7 and a remainder of 48.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2577.0
If we subtract 2016 from 2064, we get 48.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 484 / 288

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 484 by 288, we get 1 with a remainder of 196.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25771.0
If we take 288 away from 484, we end up with 196.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 196, then repeat: 1966 / 288

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 1966 by 288, we get 6 and a remainder of 238.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257716.0
If we take 1728 away from 1966, we end up with 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
288 goes into 2380 8 times with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 257716.8
If we subtract 2304 from 2380, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 10:
760 divided by 288 is 2 with a remainder of 184.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 257716.82
If we subtract 576 from 760, we get 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
288 can be fit into 1840 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 112.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257716.826
Deduct 1728 from 1840 and we're left with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 1120 by 288, we get 3 with a remainder of 256.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 257716.8263
The remainder is 256 after subtracting 864 from 1120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Step 13:
288 goes into 2560 8 times with a remainder of 256.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 257716.82638
If we subtract 2304 from 2560, we get 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 2560 by 288, we get 8 and a remainder of 256.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257716.826388
If we subtract 2304 from 2560, we get 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 257716.826388 with a balance of 2.56e-05.
