Let's divide 73421 by 28
Our goal is to divide 73421 by 28.

Step 1:
28 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 73 / 28

On to step 2:
28 can be fit into 73 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 56 from 73, we get 17.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 174 / 28

On to step 3:
28 goes into 174 6 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 168 from 174 to get 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 28

Let's proceed to step 4:
62 divided by 28 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 262.0
If we subtract 56 from 62, we get 6.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 61 / 28

On to step 5:
61 divided by 28 is 2 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2622.0
Subtract 56 from 61 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 6:
If we divide 50 by 28, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2622.1
If we subtract 28 from 50, we 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.

On to step 7:
28 goes into 220 7 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2622.17
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 196 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 28 fits into 240 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2622.178
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
28 can be fit into 160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2622.1785
Deduct 140 from 160 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
28 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2622.17857
Deduct 196 from 200 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 40 by 28, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2622.178571
If we take 28 away from 40, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
28 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2622.1785714
Subtracting 112 from 120 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 13:
80 divided by 28 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2622.17857142
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 2622.17857142 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
