We're dividing 731261 by 15 
We're looking to find how many times 15 goes into 731261.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 15, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 73 / 15

Step 2:
73 divided by 15 is 4 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 60 from 73 to get 13.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 131 / 15

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 15 fits into 131 8 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 120 away from 131, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 112 / 15

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 112 by 15, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 487.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 105 from 112.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 76 / 15

On to step 5:
15 can be fit into 76 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4875.0
If we take 75 away from 76, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 15

Let's proceed to step 6:
11 divided by 15 is 0 with a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48750.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 15 fits into 110 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48750.7
Subtracting 105 from 110 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 50 by 15, we get 3 with a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48750.73
If we take 45 away from 50, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 15, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48750.733
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 45 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 48750.733 and a remainder of 0.0005.
