We're dividing 51683 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 51683 can be divided by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
51 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 51.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 51 leaves us with 51.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 516 / 73

Step 3:
516 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 511 from 516 to get 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 58 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 58.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 70.0
If we take 0 away from 58, we end up with 58.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 583 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
73 goes into 583 7 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 707.0
If we take 511 away from 583, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
73 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 707.9
If we take 657 away from 720, we end up with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 630 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 46.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 707.98
Subtracting 584 from 630 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
73 goes into 460 6 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 707.986
Subtract 438 from 460 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 9:
220 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 707.9863
Subtracting 219 from 220 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 73 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 707.9863
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
73 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 707.986301
If we subtract 73 from 100, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
73 can be fit into 270 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 707.9863013
Subtract 219 from 270 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
73 can be fit into 510 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 707.98630136
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 438 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 707.98630136 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
