156984 ÷ 73 
Let's see how many times 73 fits into 156984.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 73

Let's proceed to step 2:
73 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, we get 15.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 156 / 73

Step 3:
73 can be fit into 156 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 146 away from 156, we end up with 10.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 109 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
73 goes into 109 1 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 73 from 109, we get 36.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
73 goes into 368 5 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 215.0
Subtracting 365 from 368 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
73 goes into 34 0 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2150.0
If we subtract 0 from 34, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
340 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2150.4
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.

Advancing to step 8:
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: 2150.46
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.

On to step 9:
420 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2150.465
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.

Moving on to step 10:
73 goes into 550 7 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2150.4657
Deduct 511 from 550 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 73 fits into 390 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2150.46575
If we subtract 365 from 390, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 250 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2150.465753
Subtract 219 from 250 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
310 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2150.4657534
Subtracting 292 from 310 leaves us with 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 14:
If we divide 180 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2150.46575342
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 146 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The final result is 2150.46575342 with a remainder of 3.4e-08.
