We're dividing 731859 by 81 
We want to divide 731859 by 81.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 81 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 73 / 81

Step 2:
If we divide 73 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 73.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 73 and we're left with 73.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 731 / 81

On to step 3:
731 divided by 81 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 729 from 731 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 81

Going ahead to step 4:
81 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 90.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 285 / 81

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 285 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 903.0
If we subtract 243 from 285, we get 42.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 429 / 81

Advancing to step 6:
429 divided by 81 is 5 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9035.0
Subtract 405 from 429 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
81 goes into 240 2 times with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9035.2
Subtracting 162 from 240 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 81 fits into 780 9 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9035.29
Deduct 729 from 780 and we're left with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 510 by 81, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9035.296
If we subtract 486 from 510, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 81 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9035.2962
Subtract 162 from 240 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 780 by 81, we get 9 with a remainder of 51.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9035.29629
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 729 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
510 divided by 81 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9035.296296
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 486 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 240 by 81, we get 2 and a remainder of 78.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9035.2962962
Subtracting 162 from 240 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Step 14:
81 can be fit into 780 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9035.29629629
Deduct 729 from 780 and we're left with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9035.29629629 with a remaining 5.1e-08.
