187042 divided by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 187042 can be divided by 73.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 73

Step 2:
The number 73 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 187 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
73 can be fit into 187 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 146 from 187 leaves us with 41.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 410 / 73

Let's proceed to step 4:
410 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 365 from 410 and we're left with 45.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 454 / 73

Step 5:
The number 73 fits into 454 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 256.0
If we take 438 away from 454, we end up with 16.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 162 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 162 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2562.0
If we subtract 146 from 162, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
160 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2562.2
Subtract 146 from 160 to get 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 8:
The number 73 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2562.21
Subtracting 73 from 140 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
73 goes into 670 9 times with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2562.219
Deduct 657 from 670 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 130 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2562.2191
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 73 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 570 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 59.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2562.21917
If we take 511 away from 570, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 73 fits into 590 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2562.219178
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 13:
73 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2562.219178
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.

Moving on to step 14:
73 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2562.21917808
If we take 584 away from 600, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2562.21917808 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
