Let's divide 272353 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 272353 can be divided by 74.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
74 goes into 27 0 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 272 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
74 can be fit into 272 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 222 from 272 and we're left with 50.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 503 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
503 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 59.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 444 from 503.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 595 / 74

On to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 595 8 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 368.0
Deduct 592 from 595 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 33 / 74

Step 6:
When dividing 33 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3680.0
If we take 0 away from 33, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
74 goes into 330 4 times with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3680.4
If we subtract 296 from 330, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
74 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3680.44
Deduct 296 from 340 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3680.44 with a balance of 0.044.
