We look at the division of 688708 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 688708 can be divided by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 68 / 73

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 68 0 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 68 and we're left with 68.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 688 / 73

Moving on to step 3:
73 goes into 688 9 times with a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 657 away from 688, we end up with 31.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 317 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
73 goes into 317 4 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 94.0
Deduct 292 from 317 and we're left with 25.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 250 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
73 can be fit into 250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 943.0
Deduct 219 from 250 and we're left with 31.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 318 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 318 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9434.0
Deduct 292 from 318 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9434.3
Subtracting 219 from 260 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
73 goes into 410 5 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9434.35
Subtracting 365 from 410 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 450 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9434.356
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 438 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
120 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 47.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9434.3561
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 73 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
470 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9434.35616
Subtracting 438 from 470 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
320 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9434.356164
Subtract 292 from 320 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9434.3561643
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 219 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
73 goes into 610 8 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9434.35616438
Subtract 584 from 610 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 9434.35616438, with a leftover of 2.6e-08.
