251852 divided by 74 
Our goal is to divide 251852 by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 251 / 74

On to step 3:
When dividing 251 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 222 from 251 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 298 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 298 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 296 from 298.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
25 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 340.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 252 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
74 can be fit into 252 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution.

On to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3403.405
Subtract 370 from 400 to 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
74 can be fit into 300 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3403.4054
Subtracting 296 from 300 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3403.4054
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 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 12:
The number 74 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3403.405405
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.

Step 13:
When dividing 300 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3403.4054054
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.

Step 14:
If we divide 40 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3403.4054054
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.
