We're dividing 72808378 by 473 
We're looking to find how many times 473 goes into 72808378.

On to step 1:
The number 473 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 473

Going ahead to step 2:
72 divided by 473 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 728 / 473

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 728 by 473, we get 1 with a remainder of 255.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 473 away from 728, we end up with 255.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 255, then repeat: 2550 / 473

Advancing to step 4:
The number 473 fits into 2550 5 times, leaving a remainder of 185.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 185 after subtracting 2365 from 2550.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 185, then carry on: 1858 / 473

On to step 5:
473 can be fit into 1858 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 439.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 153.0
If we take 1419 away from 1858, we end up with 439.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 439, then repeat: 4393 / 473

Let's proceed to step 6:
473 goes into 4393 9 times with a remainder of 136.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1539.0
Subtracting 4257 from 4393 leaves us with 136.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 136 and continue with: 1367 / 473

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 1367 by 473, we get 2 and a remainder of 421.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15392.0
Subtract 946 from 1367 to get 421.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 421 and continue: 4218 / 473

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 473 fits into 4218 8 times, leaving a remainder of 434.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 153928.0
Subtracting 3784 from 4218 leaves us with 434.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
473 can be fit into 4340 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 153928.9
Subtracting 4257 from 4340 leaves us with 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
473 can be fit into 830 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 357.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 153928.91
The remainder is 357 after subtracting 473 from 830.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 3570 by 473, we get 7 with a remainder of 259.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 153928.917
If we subtract 3311 from 3570, we get 259.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2590, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 2590 by 473, we get 5 with a remainder of 225.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 153928.9175
If we subtract 2365 from 2590, we get 225.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2250, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 473 fits into 2250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 358.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 153928.91754
Subtracting 1892 from 2250 leaves us with 358.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3580, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
473 goes into 3580 7 times with a remainder of 269.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 153928.917547
The remainder is 269 after subtracting 3311 from 3580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2690, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
If we divide 2690 by 473, we get 5 and a remainder of 325.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 153928.9175475
If we take 2365 away from 2690, we end up with 325.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3250, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 3250 by 473, we get 6 and a remainder of 412.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 153928.91754756
If we subtract 2838 from 3250, we get 412.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 153928.91754756, with a leftover of 4.12e-07.
