We're dividing 388359 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 388359 can be divided by 73.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 73

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 388 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 388 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 365 from 388 to get 23.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 233 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 233 3 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we subtract 219 from 233, we get 14.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 145 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 145 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531.0
Subtracting 73 from 145 leaves us with 72.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 729 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
73 goes into 729 9 times with a remainder of 72.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5319.0
Subtract 657 from 729 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
73 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5319.9
If we subtract 657 from 720, we get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
73 can be fit into 630 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5319.98
Deduct 584 from 630 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 9:
73 goes into 460 6 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5319.986
If we take 438 away from 460, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 73 fits into 220 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5319.9863
If we take 219 away from 220, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5319.9863
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 73 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5319.986301
Subtract 73 from 100 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5319.9863013
Subtract 219 from 270 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
73 can be fit into 510 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5319.98630136
If we subtract 438 from 510, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5319.98630136 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
