74041470 ÷ 278 
We want to figure out the number of times 74041470 can be divided by 278.

Advancing to step 1:
278 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 74 / 278

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 278 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 74 and we're left with 74.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 740 / 278

On to step 3:
278 goes into 740 2 times with a remainder of 184.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 556 from 740 and we're left with 184.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 184, then repeat: 1844 / 278

Step 4:
278 can be fit into 1844 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 176.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
Deduct 1668 from 1844 and we're left with 176.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 176, then carry on: 1761 / 278

Advancing to step 5:
1761 divided by 278 is 6 with a remainder of 93.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 266.0
If we subtract 1668 from 1761, we get 93.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 93 and repeat the process: 934 / 278

Advancing to step 6:
278 goes into 934 3 times with a remainder of 100.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2663.0
Deduct 834 from 934 and we're left with 100.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 100 and continue: 1007 / 278

On to step 7:
The number 278 fits into 1007 3 times, leaving a remainder of 173.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26633.0
The remainder is 173 after subtracting 834 from 1007.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 173 and repeat the process: 1730 / 278

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 1730 by 278, we get 6 with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 266336.0
If we subtract 1668 from 1730, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 278 fits into 620 2 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 266336.2
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 556 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 278, we get 2 and a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 266336.22
Subtracting 556 from 640 leaves us with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 266336.22 with a balance of 0.084.
