208473 divided by 73 
Our goal is to divide 208473 by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 208 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 208 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 146 away from 208, we end up with 62.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 624 / 73

Step 4:
If we divide 624 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 40.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
Deduct 584 from 624 and we're left with 40.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
73 can be fit into 407 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 285.0
If we take 365 away from 407, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 423 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
423 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2855.0
Deduct 365 from 423 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 580 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 69.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2855.7
Subtract 511 from 580 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 690 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2855.79
Subtract 657 from 690 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 330 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2855.794
Subtract 292 from 330 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 380 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2855.7945
Deduct 365 from 380 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
73 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2855.79452
Deduct 146 from 150 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 73 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2855.79452
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
73 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2855.7945205
Subtracting 365 from 400 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 350 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 58.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2855.79452054
Subtract 292 from 350 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

The final result is 2855.79452054 with a remainder of 5.8e-08.
