We divide 327871 by 73
We want to divide 327871 by 73.

On to step 1:
73 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 32 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 32 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 32.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 32, we end up with 32.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 327 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 327 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 292 from 327 to get 35.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 358 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 358 4 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44.0
Subtract 292 from 358 to get 66.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 66 and repeat the process: 667 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
667 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 449.0
Deduct 657 from 667 and we're left with 10.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 101 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
73 can be fit into 101 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4491.0
If we subtract 73 from 101, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4491.3
If we subtract 219 from 280, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
73 goes into 610 8 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4491.38
Subtracting 584 from 610 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 260 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4491.383
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.

Advancing to step 10:
73 can be fit into 410 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4491.3835
Deduct 365 from 410 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 450 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4491.38356
Deduct 438 from 450 and we're left with 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 12:
The number 73 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4491.383561
Subtracting 73 from 120 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 470 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4491.3835616
Deduct 438 from 470 and we're left with 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 14:
When dividing 320 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4491.38356164
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.

The quotient of the division is 4491.38356164, and the remainder is 2.8e-08.
