We're dividing 520989 by 73 
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 520989.

On 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
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 73

On to step 2:
If we divide 52 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 52, we get 52.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 52 and repeat the process: 520 / 73

Step 3:
73 can be fit into 520 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 511 from 520.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 73

Step 4:
The number 73 fits into 99 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 71.0
If we take 73 away from 99, we end up with 26.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 268 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 268 3 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 713.0
If we take 219 away from 268, we end up with 49.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 499 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 499 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 61.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7136.0
Deduct 438 from 499 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 610 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7136.8
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 584 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
260 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7136.83
Subtract 219 from 260 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 410 by 73, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7136.835
If we take 365 away from 410, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 73 fits into 450 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7136.8356
If we subtract 438 from 450, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 11:
73 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7136.83561
If we subtract 73 from 120, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 73 fits into 470 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7136.835616
If we subtract 438 from 470, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7136.8356164
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 292 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
73 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7136.83561643
If we take 219 away from 280, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7136.83561643 with a balance of 6.1e-08.
