272623 ÷ 74 
Our goal is to divide 272623 by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
74 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 27 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 272 / 74

On to step 3:
74 goes into 272 3 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 222 from 272 leaves us with 50.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 506 / 74

On to step 4:
74 goes into 506 6 times with a remainder of 62.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we subtract 444 from 506, we get 62.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 62 and continue: 622 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 622 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 30.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 368.0
Subtracting 592 from 622 leaves us with 30.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 303 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
The number 74 fits into 303 4 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3684.0
Subtract 296 from 303 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 70 0 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3684.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 700 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3684.09
Subtract 666 from 700 to 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.

Step 9:
The number 74 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3684.094
Subtracting 296 from 340 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 440 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3684.0945
Subtract 370 from 440 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 700 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3684.09459
Subtract 666 from 700 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 340 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3684.094594
If we subtract 296 from 340, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 440 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3684.0945945
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 370 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 700 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3684.09459459
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 666 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3684.09459459, and the remainder is 3.4e-08.
