Let's divide 530879 by 73
Our goal is to divide 530879 by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 53 / 73

Going ahead to step 2:
73 goes into 53 0 times with a remainder of 53.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 53 and we're left with 53.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 530 / 73

Step 3:
530 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 511 from 530, we get 19.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 198 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 198 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 52.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 72.0
Subtracting 146 from 198 leaves us with 52.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 527 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
527 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 727.0
If we subtract 511 from 527, we get 16.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 169 / 73

Let's proceed to step 6:
73 can be fit into 169 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7272.0
If we take 146 away from 169, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 230 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7272.3
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 219 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 8:
73 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7272.31
Deduct 73 from 110 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
73 can be fit into 370 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7272.315
If we subtract 365 from 370, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
50 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7272.315
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
500 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 62.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7272.31506
If we subtract 438 from 500, we get 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 12:
73 can be fit into 620 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7272.315068
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 584 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 360 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 68.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7272.3150684
If we subtract 292 from 360, 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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 680 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7272.31506849
If we subtract 657 from 680, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7272.31506849 and a remainder of 2.3e-08.
