636986 divided by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 636986 can be divided by 73.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 63 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 63.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 63 to get 63.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 636 / 73

Step 3:
73 goes into 636 8 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 584 from 636 to get 52.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 529 / 73

Step 4:
When dividing 529 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 87.0
Deduct 511 from 529 and we're left with 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 73

Step 5:
73 goes into 188 2 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 872.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 146 from 188.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 426 / 73

On to step 6:
73 goes into 426 5 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8725.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 365 from 426.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 610 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8725.8
Subtracting 584 from 610 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 8:
73 can be fit into 260 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8725.83
If we subtract 219 from 260, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 410 by 73, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8725.835
Subtracting 365 from 410 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
73 can be fit into 450 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8725.8356
Subtract 438 from 450 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
73 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 47.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8725.83561
If we take 73 away from 120, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
73 can be fit into 470 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8725.835616
Subtract 438 from 470 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8725.8356164
Subtract 292 from 320 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 280 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 61.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8725.83561643
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 219 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8725.83561643 and a remainder of 6.1e-08.
