73959486 ÷ 496 
We want to divide 73959486 by 496.

Step 1:
The number 496 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 496

On to step 2:
If we divide 73 by 496, we get 0 and a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 73, we end up with 73.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 739 / 496

Let's proceed to step 3:
496 can be fit into 739 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 243.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 496 away from 739, we end up with 243.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 243 and continue: 2435 / 496

On to step 4:
If we divide 2435 by 496, we get 4 and a remainder of 451.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 1984 from 2435 to get 451.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 451 and continue: 4519 / 496

Going ahead to step 5:
4519 divided by 496 is 9 with a remainder of 55.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 149.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 4464 from 4519.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 554 / 496

Going ahead to step 6:
496 can be fit into 554 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1491.0
If we subtract 496 from 554, we get 58.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 588 / 496

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 588 by 496, we get 1 with a remainder of 92.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14911.0
The remainder is 92 after subtracting 496 from 588.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 92, then carry on: 926 / 496

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 496 fits into 926 1 times, leaving a remainder of 430.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149111.0
Deduct 496 from 926 and we're left with 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
496 goes into 4300 8 times with a remainder of 332.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 149111.8
Subtract 3968 from 4300 to get 332.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3320, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 3320 by 496, we get 6 with a remainder of 344.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149111.86
Subtracting 2976 from 3320 leaves us with 344.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 3440 by 496, we get 6 and a remainder of 464.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149111.866
If we take 2976 away from 3440, we end up with 464.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 149111.866 with a balance of 0.0464.
