We divide 686480 by 73
We want to figure out the number of times 686480 can be divided by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
73 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 68 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 68, we get 68.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 686 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
73 goes into 686 9 times with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 657 away from 686, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 294 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 294 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 94.0
Subtract 292 from 294 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 28 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 940.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 280 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
73 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9403.0
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.

Advancing to step 7:
610 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 9403.8
If we subtract 584 from 610, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 260 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9403.83
Deduct 219 from 260 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 410 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9403.835
Subtracting 365 from 410 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 450 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9403.8356
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 438 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 11:
120 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 47.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9403.83561
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
73 goes into 470 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9403.835616
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.

On to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9403.8356164
Subtracting 292 from 320 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
73 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9403.83561643
If we take 219 away from 280, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 9403.83561643, and the remainder is 6.1e-08.
