We look at the division of 512279 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 512279 can be divided by 73.

Step 1:
The number 73 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
73 goes into 51 0 times with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 51 and we're left with 51.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 51, then carry on: 512 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 73 fits into 512 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 511 from 512.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 73

Step 4:
The number 73 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 70.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 73

Step 5:
If we divide 127 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 54.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 701.0
Subtract 73 from 127 to get 54.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 549 / 73

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 549 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7017.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 511 from 549.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
380 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7017.5
Subtracting 365 from 380 leaves us 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 8:
73 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7017.52
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 146 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7017.52
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 73, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7017.5205
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 365 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 350 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7017.52054
If we take 292 away from 350, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 73 fits into 580 7 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7017.520547
Subtracting 511 from 580 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
690 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7017.5205479
Deduct 657 from 690 and we're left with 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 14:
330 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7017.52054794
Subtracting 292 from 330 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 7017.52054794, with a leftover of 3.8e-08.
