We look at the division of 188040 by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 188040.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 74

On to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 188 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
74 can be fit into 188 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 148 from 188 leaves us with 40.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 400 / 74

Step 4:
When dividing 400 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 370 from 400 and we're left with 30.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 304 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 can be fit into 304 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 254.0
If we take 296 away from 304, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 80 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2541.0
If we take 74 away from 80, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
74 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2541.0
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2541.08
Subtracting 592 from 600 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2541.081
Subtract 74 from 80 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 60 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2541.081
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 600 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2541.08108
Subtracting 592 from 600 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2541.081081
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 74 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
74 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2541.081081
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 600 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2541.08108108
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 592 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2541.08108108, and the remainder is 8e-09.
