We look at the division of 408999 by 73 
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 408999.

On to step 1:
73 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 73

Going ahead to step 2:
73 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 408 / 73

Moving on to step 3:
408 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 365 from 408, we get 43.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 439 / 73

Step 4:
If we divide 439 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 56.0
Subtract 438 from 439 to get 1.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 19 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
73 goes into 19 0 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 560.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 0 from 19.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 199 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 199 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 53.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5602.0
Subtracting 146 from 199 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 530 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5602.7
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 190 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5602.72
Deduct 146 from 190 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 440 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5602.726
Subtract 438 from 440 to get 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 10:
If we divide 20 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5602.726
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 54.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5602.72602
Deduct 146 from 200 and we're left with 54.
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 12:
540 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5602.726027
Subtract 511 from 540 to 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 13:
290 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 71.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5602.7260273
Deduct 219 from 290 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
73 goes into 710 9 times with a remainder of 53.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5602.72602739
If we subtract 657 from 710, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5602.72602739, and the remainder is 5.3e-08.
