We look at the division of 238959 by 73 
We want to divide 238959 by 73.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 238 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
238 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 219 from 238 leaves us with 19.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 199 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
199 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we take 146 away from 199, we end up with 53.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 535 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 535 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 327.0
If we take 511 away from 535, we end up with 24.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 249 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
73 can be fit into 249 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3273.0
If we take 219 away from 249, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
73 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3273.4
If we take 292 away from 300, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3273.41
Subtracting 73 from 80 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
73 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3273.41
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 10:
73 can be fit into 700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3273.4109
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 657 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 430 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3273.41095
If we subtract 365 from 430, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
73 can be fit into 650 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3273.410958
Deduct 584 from 650 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
660 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3273.4109589
Subtract 657 from 660 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 14:
73 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3273.4109589
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3273.4109589 with a remaining 3e-08.
