Let's divide 871093 by 73
Our goal is to divide 871093 by 73.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 73 from 87.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
73 goes into 141 1 times with a remainder of 68.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 73 from 141 leaves us with 68.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 680 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 680 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 119.0
Deduct 657 from 680 and we're left with 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
73 can be fit into 239 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1193.0
Subtract 219 from 239 to get 20.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 203 / 73

Step 6:
73 can be fit into 203 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11932.0
If we subtract 146 from 203, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 570 7 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11932.7
Subtracting 511 from 570 leaves us with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 590 by 73, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11932.78
If we take 584 away from 590, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11932.78
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 73 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11932.7808
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 584 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
73 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11932.78082
If we subtract 146 from 160, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
140 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11932.780821
If we subtract 73 from 140, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
73 can be fit into 670 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11932.7808219
Subtracting 657 from 670 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
73 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11932.78082191
If we subtract 73 from 130, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11932.78082191 and a remainder of 5.7e-08.
