Let's divide 51124 by 73
We want to divide 51124 by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 73

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 51 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 51.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 51 to get 51.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 511 / 73

Moving on to step 3:
73 can be fit into 511 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 511 from 511.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 2 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 70.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 24 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 700.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
73 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 700.3
Subtracting 219 from 240 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 7:
73 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 700.32
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 8:
If we divide 640 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 700.328
Subtract 584 from 640 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
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: 700.3287
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 511 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 73 fits into 490 6 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 700.32876
Subtracting 438 from 490 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 520 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 700.328767
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 12:
The number 73 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 700.3287671
If we take 73 away from 90, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 170 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 700.32876712
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.

The quotient of the division is 700.32876712, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
