We look at the division of 484988 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 484988 can be divided by 73.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 73

On to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 484 / 73

Step 3:
484 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 438 from 484.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 469 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 469 6 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 66.0
Subtracting 438 from 469 leaves us with 31.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 318 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 318 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 664.0
Subtracting 292 from 318 leaves us with 26.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 268 / 73

On to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 268 3 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6643.0
Subtract 219 from 268 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
73 can be fit into 490 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6643.6
If we subtract 438 from 490, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 520 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6643.67
If we take 511 away from 520, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 90 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6643.671
Deduct 73 from 90 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 170 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6643.6712
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 146 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
240 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6643.67123
Deduct 219 from 240 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
73 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6643.671232
Deduct 146 from 210 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6643.6712328
Subtracting 584 from 640 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
73 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6643.67123287
If we subtract 511 from 560, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6643.67123287 with a balance of 4.9e-08.
