726289 ÷ 74 
Our goal is to divide 726289 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 goes into 72 0 times with a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 726 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 726 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 666 from 726 to get 60.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 60, then repeat: 602 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 602 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 98.0
Subtracting 592 from 602 leaves us with 10.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 108 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
108 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 981.0
Subtracting 74 from 108 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 349 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
The number 74 fits into 349 4 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9814.0
If we take 296 away from 349, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 530 7 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9814.7
Subtract 518 from 530 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9814.71
Subtract 74 from 120 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 460 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9814.716
Subtract 444 from 460 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
160 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 9814.7162
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9814.71621
If we take 74 away from 120, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9814.716216
If we subtract 444 from 460, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
160 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9814.7162162
If we subtract 148 from 160, 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9814.71621621
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 74 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 9814.71621621, with a leftover of 4.6e-08.
