We divide 266899 by 73
Our goal is to divide 266899 by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 73

Step 2:
When dividing 26 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 266 / 73

Step 3:
If we divide 266 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 47.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 219 from 266, we get 47.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 478 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
73 can be fit into 478 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we subtract 438 from 478, we get 40.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 409 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 409 5 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 365.0
If we subtract 365 from 409, we get 44.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 449 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 449 6 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3656.0
Deduct 438 from 449 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
110 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3656.1
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 73 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 370 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3656.15
If we subtract 365 from 370, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
73 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3656.15
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
73 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3656.1506
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 438 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 620 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3656.15068
Subtracting 584 from 620 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
360 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3656.150684
Subtract 292 from 360 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 680 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3656.1506849
Subtract 657 from 680 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 230 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3656.15068493
Subtract 219 from 230 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3656.15068493, with a leftover of 1.1e-08.
