We look at the division of 100973 by 71 
We're looking to find how many times 71 goes into 100973.

Let's proceed to step 1:
71 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 10 / 71

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 71 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 100 / 71

Moving on to step 3:
71 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 71 from 100 to get 29.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 299 / 71

Moving on to step 4:
71 goes into 299 4 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 284 from 299 to get 15.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 157 / 71

Advancing to step 5:
157 divided by 71 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142.0
Subtract 142 from 157 to get 15.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 153 / 71

On to step 6:
71 goes into 153 2 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1422.0
Subtracting 142 from 153 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1422.1
If we take 71 away from 110, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 390 by 71, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1422.15
If we subtract 355 from 390, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
71 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 66.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1422.154
If we subtract 284 from 350, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 71 fits into 660 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1422.1549
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 639 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
71 can be fit into 210 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1422.15492
If we subtract 142 from 210, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
71 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 41.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1422.154929
Subtract 639 from 680 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
71 can be fit into 410 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1422.1549295
Subtracting 355 from 410 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
71 goes into 550 7 times with a remainder of 53.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1422.15492957
Subtracting 497 from 550 leaves us with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1422.15492957, and the remainder is 5.3e-08.
