We look at the division of 966259 by 73 
Let's see how many times 73 fits into 966259.

On to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 96 / 73

On to step 2:
73 goes into 96 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 73 from 96 leaves us with 23.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 236 / 73

On to step 3:
If we divide 236 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 219 from 236 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 172 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
73 can be fit into 172 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 132.0
Subtract 146 from 172 to get 26.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 265 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 265 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1323.0
Subtracting 219 from 265 leaves us with 46.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 469 / 73

On to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 469 6 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13236.0
Subtract 438 from 469 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
310 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13236.4
Deduct 292 from 310 and we're left 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 8:
180 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13236.42
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.

Moving on to step 9:
73 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13236.424
Subtract 292 from 340 to 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.

Step 10:
73 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13236.4246
If we take 438 away from 480, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
73 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13236.42465
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 365 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
73 goes into 550 7 times with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13236.424657
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.

On to step 13:
390 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13236.4246575
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 365 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 250 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 31.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13236.42465753
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 219 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Our division results in 13236.42465753 with a remaining 3.1e-08.
