740042 divided by 55 
Our goal is to divide 740042 by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 55 from 74, we get 19.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 190 / 55

Let's proceed to step 3:
55 goes into 190 3 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 165 from 190 and we're left with 25.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 250 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
55 can be fit into 250 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 134.0
Subtracting 220 from 250 leaves us with 30.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 304 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 304 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 29.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1345.0
If we take 275 away from 304, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 292 / 55

Moving on to step 6:
55 goes into 292 5 times with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13455.0
Subtracting 275 from 292 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 7:
170 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13455.3
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 165 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13455.3
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13455.309
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13455.309
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 55 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13455.30909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13455.30909
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13455.3090909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 14:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13455.3090909
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 13455.3090909 and a remainder of 5e-08.
