Let's divide 459438 by 73
We want to figure out the number of times 459438 can be divided by 73.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 73

Step 2:
When dividing 45 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 45.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 45 leaves us with 45.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 459 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 73 fits into 459 6 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 438 from 459 leaves us with 21.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 73

Step 4:
73 can be fit into 214 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 62.0
If we take 146 away from 214, we end up with 68.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 68, then repeat: 683 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
73 can be fit into 683 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 629.0
Subtract 657 from 683 to get 26.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 268 / 73

On to step 6:
If we divide 268 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6293.0
Subtracting 219 from 268 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 490 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6293.6
If we take 438 away from 490, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 73 fits into 520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6293.67
If we take 511 away from 520, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
73 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6293.671
Deduct 73 from 90 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
73 can be fit into 170 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6293.6712
If we take 146 away from 170, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
240 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6293.67123
If we subtract 219 from 240, we get 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 12:
210 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6293.671232
Deduct 146 from 210 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6293.6712328
Deduct 584 from 640 and we're left 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.

Step 14:
560 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6293.67123287
Deduct 511 from 560 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

The final result is 6293.67123287 with a remainder of 4.9e-08.
