264080 ÷ 73 
Our goal is to divide 264080 by 73.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
73 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 264 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 264 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 45.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 219 from 264 to get 45.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 450 / 73

On to step 4:
73 goes into 450 6 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtracting 438 from 450 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 128 / 73

Step 5:
73 goes into 128 1 times with a remainder of 55.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 361.0
If we take 73 away from 128, we end up with 55.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 550 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 550 7 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3617.0
If we subtract 511 from 550, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
390 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3617.5
Subtracting 365 from 390 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
73 can be fit into 250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3617.53
Deduct 219 from 250 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 310 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3617.534
If we subtract 292 from 310, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 10:
73 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3617.5342
If we subtract 146 from 180, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
73 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3617.53424
If we subtract 292 from 340, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 480 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3617.534246
Subtracting 438 from 480 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 13:
73 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3617.5342465
Subtract 365 from 420 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 550 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3617.53424657
Subtracting 511 from 550 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3617.53424657 with a remaining 3.9e-08.
