229144 divided by 74 
Our goal is to divide 229144 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 22 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
74 can be fit into 229 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 222 from 229 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 71 0 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 0 from 71.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 714 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 714 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 48.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 309.0
If we take 666 away from 714, we end up with 48.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 484 / 74

On to step 6:
484 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3096.0
If we subtract 444 from 484, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
74 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3096.5
Subtracting 370 from 400 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
74 can be fit into 300 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3096.54
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 296 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3096.54
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3096.5405
If we take 370 away from 400, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 74 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3096.54054
If we take 296 away from 300, 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3096.54054
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
74 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3096.5405405
If we subtract 370 from 400, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
74 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3096.54054054
Deduct 296 from 300 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3096.54054054 with a balance of 4e-09.
