We're dividing 26685 by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 26685.

Moving on to step 1:
74 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 74

Step 2:
If we divide 26 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 26 to get 26.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 266 / 74

Step 3:
266 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 222 from 266.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 448 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 448 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 444 away from 448, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 74

On to step 5:
74 goes into 45 0 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 360.0
If we subtract 0 from 45, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
74 goes into 450 6 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 360.6
Deduct 444 from 450 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 60 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 360.6
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
74 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 360.608
Subtracting 592 from 600 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 360.6081
If we subtract 74 from 80, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
74 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 360.6081
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 360.608108
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 592 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 360.6081081
If we take 74 away from 80, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 13:
60 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 360.6081081
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 360.6081081 with a balance of 6e-08.
