We're dividing 138211 by 73 
We want to divide 138211 by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 73, we get 0 and 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.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 13 / 73

On to step 2:
If we divide 13 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 0 from 13.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 138 / 73

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 138 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 73 from 138.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 65 and repeat the process: 652 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 652 by 73, we get 8 with a remainder of 68.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 584 from 652.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 68, then repeat: 681 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 681 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 189.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 657 from 681.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 241 / 73

Let's proceed to step 6:
241 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1893.0
Deduct 219 from 241 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
73 goes into 220 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1893.3
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 219 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 73 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1893.3
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
73 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1893.301
Deduct 73 from 100 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 270 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1893.3013
Subtracting 219 from 270 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 510 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1893.30136
If we take 438 away from 510, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
720 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 63.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1893.301369
Deduct 657 from 720 and we're left with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
630 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1893.3013698
Subtract 584 from 630 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 460 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1893.30136986
Subtracting 438 from 460 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1893.30136986, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
