Let's divide 505431 by 73
Let's see how many times 73 fits into 505431.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 50 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 50 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 505 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
73 goes into 505 6 times with a remainder of 67.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 438 from 505 and we're left with 67.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 674 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
674 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 69.0
If we take 657 away from 674, we end up with 17.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 173 / 73

Step 5:
73 goes into 173 2 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 692.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 146 from 173.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 271 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
271 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6923.0
If we subtract 219 from 271, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 520 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6923.7
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.

Moving on to step 8:
73 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6923.71
Subtract 73 from 90 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
73 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6923.712
If we subtract 146 from 170, 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
73 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6923.7123
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 219 from 240.
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 11:
The number 73 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6923.71232
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.

Moving on to step 12:
73 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6923.712328
If we take 584 away from 640, we end up 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 13:
If we divide 560 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6923.7123287
If we take 511 away from 560, we end up 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.

Step 14:
73 goes into 490 6 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6923.71232876
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.

The quotient of the division is 6923.71232876, and the remainder is 5.2e-08.
