We look at the division of 178220 by 74 
We want to divide 178220 by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
74 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 178 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
74 can be fit into 178 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 148 from 178.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 302 / 74

Step 4:
74 can be fit into 302 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 296 from 302 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 goes into 62 0 times with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 240.0
If we subtract 0 from 62, we get 62.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 620 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 620 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2408.0
Subtract 592 from 620 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2408.3
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
74 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 62.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2408.37
If we take 518 away from 580, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
620 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2408.378
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 592 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2408.3783
Deduct 222 from 280 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
74 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2408.37837
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 518 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 can be fit into 620 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2408.378378
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 592 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2408.3783783
If we take 222 away from 280, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
74 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 62.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2408.37837837
Subtracting 518 from 580 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

The final result is 2408.37837837 with a remainder of 6.2e-08.
