We're dividing 10840 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 10840 can be divided by 73.

Step 1:
1 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 10 / 73

Let's proceed to step 2:
10 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 108 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
108 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 73 from 108 and we're left with 35.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 354 / 73

On to step 4:
If we divide 354 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 62.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 292 from 354 leaves us with 62.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 620 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
73 goes into 620 8 times with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 148.0
If we subtract 584 from 620, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 6:
The number 73 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 148.4
If we take 292 away from 360, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 73 fits into 680 9 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148.49
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 657 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
73 can be fit into 230 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148.493
Deduct 219 from 230 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 9:
73 goes into 110 1 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148.4931
Deduct 73 from 110 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 370 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148.49315
Subtract 365 from 370 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 11:
73 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148.49315
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
500 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148.4931506
If we take 438 away from 500, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
620 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 148.49315068
Subtracting 584 from 620 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 148.49315068, with a leftover of 3.6e-08.
