493962 ÷ 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 493962 can be divided by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 73

On to step 2:
49 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 493 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
73 goes into 493 6 times with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 438 from 493, we get 55.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 559 / 73

Step 4:
73 can be fit into 559 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 511 from 559.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 486 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 486 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 676.0
Deduct 438 from 486 and we're left with 48.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 482 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
73 can be fit into 482 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6766.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 438 from 482.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
73 goes into 440 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6766.6
Subtracting 438 from 440 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
73 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6766.6
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6766.602
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 146 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 540 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6766.6027
If we subtract 511 from 540, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
73 goes into 290 3 times with a remainder of 71.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6766.60273
If we take 219 away from 290, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 710 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 53.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6766.602739
Deduct 657 from 710 and we're left 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.

Step 13:
530 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6766.6027397
Subtracting 511 from 530 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
73 can be fit into 190 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6766.60273972
Subtracting 146 from 190 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6766.60273972 with a remaining 4.4e-08.
