We divide 581980 by 73
Our goal is to divide 581980 by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
73 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 58 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 58.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 58, we get 58.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 581 / 73

On to step 3:
73 goes into 581 7 times with a remainder of 70.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 511 from 581, we get 70.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 709 / 73

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 709 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 79.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 657 from 709.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 528 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
73 can be fit into 528 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 797.0
If we take 511 away from 528, we end up with 17.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 170 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
170 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7972.0
If we subtract 146 from 170, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 240 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7972.3
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.

Step 8:
73 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7972.32
Subtract 146 from 210 to get 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 9:
73 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7972.328
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 560 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7972.3287
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.

Moving on to step 11:
73 can be fit into 490 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7972.32876
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.

Step 12:
When dividing 520 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7972.328767
Subtract 511 from 520 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
90 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7972.3287671
If we take 73 away from 90, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
170 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7972.32876712
If we subtract 146 from 170, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7972.32876712 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
