73217418 ÷ 499 
We want to figure out the number of times 73217418 can be divided by 499.

Step 1:
499 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 73 / 499

On to step 2:
499 can be fit into 73 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 73 and we're left with 73.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 732 / 499

Let's proceed to step 3:
499 can be fit into 732 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 233.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 499 from 732 leaves us with 233.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 233 and repeat the process: 2331 / 499

Moving on to step 4:
The number 499 fits into 2331 4 times, leaving a remainder of 335.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 335 after subtracting 1996 from 2331.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 335, then repeat: 3357 / 499

Moving on to step 5:
3357 divided by 499 is 6 with a remainder of 363.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 146.0
If we subtract 2994 from 3357, we get 363.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 363, then repeat: 3634 / 499

Going ahead to step 6:
499 can be fit into 3634 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 141.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1467.0
Subtract 3493 from 3634 to get 141.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 141 and continue with: 1411 / 499

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 1411 by 499, we get 2 with a remainder of 413.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14672.0
If we subtract 998 from 1411, we get 413.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 413, then repeat: 4138 / 499

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 4138 by 499, we get 8 with a remainder of 146.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146728.0
Subtract 3992 from 4138 to get 146.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1460, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 1460 by 499, we get 2 and a remainder of 462.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 146728.2
Subtracting 998 from 1460 leaves us with 462.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4620, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
499 goes into 4620 9 times with a remainder of 129.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146728.29
If we subtract 4491 from 4620, we get 129.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1290, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 1290 by 499, we get 2 and a remainder of 292.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 146728.292
Subtract 998 from 1290 to get 292.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
499 can be fit into 2920 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 425.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 146728.2925
If we take 2495 away from 2920, we end up with 425.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 4250 by 499, we get 8 and a remainder of 258.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146728.29258
The remainder is 258 after subtracting 3992 from 4250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 2580 by 499, we get 5 with a remainder of 85.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 146728.292585
The remainder is 85 after subtracting 2495 from 2580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Step 15:
499 can be fit into 850 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 351.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146728.2925851
The remainder is 351 after subtracting 499 from 850.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
3510 divided by 499 is 7 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 146728.29258517
Deduct 3493 from 3510 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 146728.29258517, and the remainder is 1.7e-08.
