16468284 ÷ 973 
Let's see how many times 973 fits into 16468284.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 973, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 973

Step 2:
16 divided by 973 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 164 / 973

On to step 3:
164 divided by 973 is 0 with a remainder of 164.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 164 leaves us with 164.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 164, then carry on: 1646 / 973

On to step 4:
The number 973 fits into 1646 1 times, leaving a remainder of 673.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 973 from 1646, we get 673.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 673, then repeat: 6738 / 973

On to step 5:
If we divide 6738 by 973, we get 6 and a remainder of 900.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 5838 from 6738 to get 900.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 900, then repeat: 9002 / 973

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 9002 by 973, we get 9 and a remainder of 245.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 169.0
If we subtract 8757 from 9002, we get 245.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 245 and continue with: 2458 / 973

Step 7:
973 goes into 2458 2 times with a remainder of 512.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1692.0
Deduct 1946 from 2458 and we're left with 512.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 512 and repeat the process: 5124 / 973

On to step 8:
973 goes into 5124 5 times with a remainder of 259.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16925.0
If we subtract 4865 from 5124, we get 259.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2590, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
973 can be fit into 2590 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 644.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16925.2
If we subtract 1946 from 2590, we get 644.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6440, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
6440 divided by 973 is 6 with a remainder of 602.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16925.26
If we subtract 5838 from 6440, we get 602.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6020, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 6020 by 973, we get 6 and a remainder of 182.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16925.266
If we take 5838 away from 6020, we end up with 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 16925.266, with a leftover of 0.0182.
