We're dividing 548209 by 73 
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 548209.

Let's proceed to 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
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 73

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 54 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 54.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 54, we end up with 54.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 548 / 73

On to step 3:
73 can be fit into 548 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 511 from 548.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 372 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
73 goes into 372 5 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 75.0
If we take 365 away from 372, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 70 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 70 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 70.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 750.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 70 and continue: 709 / 73

Step 6:
The number 73 fits into 709 9 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7509.0
If we subtract 657 from 709, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 7:
520 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7509.7
Subtract 511 from 520 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
73 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7509.71
Deduct 73 from 90 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 170 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7509.712
If we take 146 away from 170, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
240 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7509.7123
Subtract 219 from 240 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
73 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7509.71232
Subtract 146 from 210 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 73 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7509.712328
Subtract 584 from 640 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 560 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7509.7123287
Deduct 511 from 560 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 490 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7509.71232876
Subtracting 438 from 490 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 7509.71232876, with a leftover of 5.2e-08.
