We're dividing 53144278 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 53144278 can be divided by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
73 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 53 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 53 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 53, we end up with 53.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 531 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 531 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 511 from 531, we get 20.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 204 / 73

On to step 4:
If we divide 204 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 72.0
Subtract 146 from 204 to get 58.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 584 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 584 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 728.0
If we subtract 584 from 584, we get 0.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 2 / 73

On to step 6:
2 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7280.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 73

Let's proceed to step 7:
73 goes into 27 0 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 72800.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 278 / 73

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 278 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 728003.0
Deduct 219 from 278 and we're left with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
590 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 728003.8
Subtracting 584 from 590 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
73 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 728003.8
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 600 by 73, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 728003.808
Subtracting 584 from 600 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
160 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 728003.8082
Subtracting 146 from 160 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 140 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 728003.80821
If we subtract 73 from 140, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 73 fits into 670 9 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 728003.808219
If we subtract 657 from 670, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
If we divide 130 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 57.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 728003.8082191
If we subtract 73 from 130, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Step 16:
73 can be fit into 570 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 728003.80821917
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 511 from 570.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Our division results in 728003.80821917 with a remaining 5.9e-08.
