We're dividing 248511 by 74 
We want to divide 248511 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 248 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 248 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 222 from 248, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 265 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
265 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 43.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 33.0
Deduct 222 from 265 and we're left with 43.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 431 / 74

On to step 5:
431 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 61.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 335.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 370 from 431.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 611 / 74

Step 6:
When dividing 611 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3358.0
If we subtract 592 from 611, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3358.2
Deduct 148 from 190 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 420 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3358.25
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 370 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
500 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3358.256
Subtracting 444 from 500 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 560 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 42.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3358.2567
Deduct 518 from 560 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 420 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3358.25675
Subtracting 370 from 420 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3358.256756
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 444 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3358.2567567
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 518 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
420 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3358.25675675
Subtracting 370 from 420 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.

The quotient of the division is 3358.25675675, and the remainder is 5e-08.
