Let's divide 52864525 by 73
We want to divide 52864525 by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 73

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 52 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 52.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 528 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 528 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 511 away from 528, we end up with 17.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 176 / 73

On to step 4:
If we divide 176 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 72.0
Subtracting 146 from 176 leaves us with 30.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 304 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
73 can be fit into 304 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 724.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 292 from 304.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 125 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
73 goes into 125 1 times with a remainder of 52.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7241.0
Subtracting 73 from 125 leaves us with 52.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 522 / 73

Let's proceed to step 7:
522 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 72417.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 511 from 522.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 115 / 73

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 115 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 724171.0
Subtract 73 from 115 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 724171.5
If we take 365 away from 420, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 550 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 39.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 724171.57
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 511 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 390 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 724171.575
Subtract 365 from 390 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 250 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 724171.5753
Deduct 219 from 250 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
310 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 724171.57534
Subtracting 292 from 310 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 180 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 724171.575342
Subtract 146 from 180 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 340 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 724171.5753424
Subtract 292 from 340 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 480 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 42.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 724171.57534246
Subtracting 438 from 480 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 724171.57534246 with a remaining 4.2e-08.
