We're dividing 42317883 by 73 
We want to divide 42317883 by 73.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 73

Step 2:
73 can be fit into 42 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 42, we get 42.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 423 / 73

Step 3:
423 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 58.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 365 from 423 to get 58.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 58, then repeat: 581 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
73 goes into 581 7 times with a remainder of 70.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 511 from 581, we get 70.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 70 and continue: 707 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 707 9 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 579.0
If we take 657 away from 707, we end up with 50.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 508 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 508 6 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5796.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 438 from 508.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 70 and continue with: 708 / 73

Going ahead to step 7:
708 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 57969.0
Subtract 657 from 708 to get 51.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 513 / 73

Step 8:
513 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 2.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 579697.0
Subtract 511 from 513 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 579697.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
73 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 579697.02
Subtract 146 from 200 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
73 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 579697.027
Subtracting 511 from 540 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
73 goes into 290 3 times with a remainder of 71.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 579697.0273
Subtract 219 from 290 to get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
73 goes into 710 9 times with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 579697.02739
Subtracting 657 from 710 leaves us with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 530 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 579697.027397
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 511 from 530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
When dividing 190 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 579697.0273972
Deduct 146 from 190 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
73 can be fit into 440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 579697.02739726
Subtracting 438 from 440 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 579697.02739726 with a remaining 2e-09.
