We look at the division of 265040 by 74 
We want to divide 265040 by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 74

Step 2:
26 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 26 to get 26.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 265 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
74 can be fit into 265 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 222 from 265 and we're left with 43.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 430 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 430 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 60.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35.0
Deduct 370 from 430 and we're left with 60.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 60, then repeat: 604 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
604 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 358.0
If we take 592 away from 604, we end up with 12.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 120 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3581.0
Subtract 74 from 120 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 460 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3581.6
Subtracting 444 from 460 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
74 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3581.62
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3581.621
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 74 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
460 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3581.6216
If we subtract 444 from 460, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3581.62162
If we subtract 148 from 160, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 120 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3581.621621
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 74 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 460 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3581.6216216
If we subtract 444 from 460, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3581.62162162
Subtracting 148 from 160 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3581.62162162, and the remainder is 1.2e-08.
