Let's divide 214968 by 73
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 214968.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 73

Let's proceed to step 2:
73 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 214 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 68.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 146 away from 214, we end up with 68.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 689 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
73 goes into 689 9 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 657 from 689 to get 32.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 326 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 326 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 294.0
If we take 292 away from 326, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 348 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 348 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 56.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2944.0
Deduct 292 from 348 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2944.7
Deduct 511 from 560 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
490 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2944.76
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 438 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
73 goes into 520 7 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2944.767
If we subtract 511 from 520, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 90 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2944.7671
Subtracting 73 from 90 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
73 can be fit into 170 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2944.76712
Deduct 146 from 170 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 73 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2944.767123
If we take 219 away from 240, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
73 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2944.7671232
Subtracting 146 from 210 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 73 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2944.76712328
Deduct 584 from 640 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2944.76712328, and the remainder is 5.6e-08.
