We look at the division of 74799158 by 296 
Let's see how many times 296 fits into 74799158.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 296, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 296

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 74 by 296, we get 0 and a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 747 / 296

Step 3:
296 goes into 747 2 times with a remainder of 155.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 592 from 747 and we're left with 155.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 155, then repeat: 1559 / 296

Going ahead to step 4:
296 can be fit into 1559 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we subtract 1480 from 1559, we get 79.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 79 and continue: 799 / 296

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 799 by 296, we get 2 with a remainder of 207.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 252.0
Subtracting 592 from 799 leaves us with 207.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 207, then carry on: 2071 / 296

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 2071 by 296, we get 6 with a remainder of 295.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2526.0
The remainder is 295 after subtracting 1776 from 2071.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 295, then repeat: 2955 / 296

Going ahead to step 7:
296 can be fit into 2955 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 291.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25269.0
If we subtract 2664 from 2955, we get 291.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 291 and continue with: 2918 / 296

Advancing to step 8:
296 can be fit into 2918 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 254.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 252699.0
The remainder is 254 after subtracting 2664 from 2918.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2540, and continue the process.

Step 9:
296 goes into 2540 8 times with a remainder of 172.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 252699.8
The remainder is 172 after subtracting 2368 from 2540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 296 fits into 1720 5 times, leaving a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 252699.85
If we take 1480 away from 1720, we end up with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
296 can be fit into 2400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 252699.858
If we subtract 2368 from 2400, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 296 fits into 320 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 252699.8581
Deduct 296 from 320 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
296 can be fit into 240 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 240.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 252699.8581
Deduct 0 from 240 and we're left with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 296 fits into 2400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 252699.858108
Deduct 2368 from 2400 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
296 goes into 320 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 252699.8581081
Deduct 296 from 320 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
When dividing 240 by 296, we get 0 with a remainder of 240.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 252699.8581081
The remainder is 240 after subtracting 0 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 252699.8581081 with a remaining 2.4e-07.
