We're dividing 517844 by 73 
We want to divide 517844 by 73.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 51 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 51 0 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 51, we get 51.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 517 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
73 can be fit into 517 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 511 away from 517, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 73

Step 4:
If we divide 68 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 70.0
Subtract 0 from 68 to get 68.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 684 / 73

Step 5:
73 goes into 684 9 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 709.0
Subtract 657 from 684 to get 27.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 274 / 73

Step 6:
274 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 55.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7093.0
If we take 219 away from 274, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
73 can be fit into 550 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7093.7
Subtract 511 from 550 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 73 fits into 390 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7093.75
If we take 365 away from 390, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 250 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7093.753
If we subtract 219 from 250, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 310 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7093.7534
Deduct 292 from 310 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
73 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7093.75342
Deduct 146 from 180 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
73 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7093.753424
Subtracting 292 from 340 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 42.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7093.7534246
Subtracting 438 from 480 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
73 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7093.75342465
Subtracting 365 from 420 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 7093.75342465, with a leftover of 5.5e-08.
