874379 divided by 73 
We want to divide 874379 by 73.

Going ahead to step 1:
73 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 73

Step 2:
If we divide 87 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 73 from 87, we get 14.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 144 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
73 goes into 144 1 times with a remainder of 71.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 73 from 144, we get 71.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 71 and repeat the process: 713 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 713 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 56.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 119.0
If we subtract 657 from 713, we get 56.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 567 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 567 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1197.0
Deduct 511 from 567 and we're left with 56.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 569 / 73

On to step 6:
When dividing 569 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11977.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 511 from 569.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
580 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11977.7
If we subtract 511 from 580, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 73 fits into 690 9 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11977.79
Subtracting 657 from 690 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
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: 11977.794
Subtracting 292 from 330 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 380 by 73, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11977.7945
If we take 365 away from 380, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 150 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11977.79452
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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 11977.79452
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11977.7945205
If we subtract 365 from 400, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 73 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11977.79452054
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 292 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11977.79452054 with a remaining 5.8e-08.
