Let's divide 143898 by 73
We want to divide 143898 by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
73 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 73

Step 2:
73 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 143 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 143 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 73 from 143 and we're left with 70.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 708 / 73

Step 4:
The number 73 fits into 708 9 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 657 from 708 leaves us with 51.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 519 / 73

On to step 5:
73 can be fit into 519 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 197.0
Subtract 511 from 519 to get 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 88 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1971.0
Deduct 73 from 88 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
150 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1971.2
Subtracting 146 from 150 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
73 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1971.2
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1971.205
Subtracting 365 from 400 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
73 can be fit into 350 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1971.2054
If we subtract 292 from 350, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 580 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 69.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1971.20547
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 511 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 690 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 33.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1971.205479
Deduct 657 from 690 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 330 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1971.2054794
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 292 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
380 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1971.20547945
Deduct 365 from 380 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1971.20547945 and a remainder of 1.5e-08.
