273873 ÷ 696 
We're looking to find how many times 696 goes into 273873.

Step 1:
2 divided by 696 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 696

On to step 2:
27 divided by 696 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 273 / 696

On to step 3:
The number 696 fits into 273 0 times, leaving a remainder of 273.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 273 after subtracting 0 from 273.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 273 and continue with: 2738 / 696

On to step 4:
The number 696 fits into 2738 3 times, leaving a remainder of 650.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 650 after subtracting 2088 from 2738.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 650 and continue: 6507 / 696

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 6507 by 696, we get 9 and a remainder of 243.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtract 6264 from 6507 to get 243.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 243, then repeat: 2433 / 696

Going ahead to step 6:
2433 divided by 696 is 3 with a remainder of 345.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 393.0
The remainder is 345 after subtracting 2088 from 2433.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
696 can be fit into 3450 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 666.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 393.4
Deduct 2784 from 3450 and we're left with 666.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6660, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 696 fits into 6660 9 times, leaving a remainder of 396.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 393.49
Deduct 6264 from 6660 and we're left with 396.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 3960 by 696, we get 5 with a remainder of 480.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 393.495
If we subtract 3480 from 3960, we get 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 4800 by 696, we get 6 and a remainder of 624.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 393.4956
Subtract 4176 from 4800 to get 624.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 696 fits into 6240 8 times, leaving a remainder of 672.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 393.49568
Deduct 5568 from 6240 and we're left with 672.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
6720 divided by 696 is 9 with a remainder of 456.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 393.495689
Deduct 6264 from 6720 and we're left with 456.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

Step 13:
696 goes into 4560 6 times with a remainder of 384.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 393.4956896
The remainder is 384 after subtracting 4176 from 4560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
696 can be fit into 3840 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 360.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 393.49568965
If we subtract 3480 from 3840, we get 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

The final result is 393.49568965 with a remainder of 3.6e-07.
