We're dividing 305729 by 73 
Our goal is to divide 305729 by 73.

Step 1:
73 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 30 / 73

On to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 305 / 73

Step 3:
73 can be fit into 305 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 292 from 305.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 137 / 73

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 137 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 64.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 73 from 137, we get 64.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 642 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 642 8 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 418.0
Subtracting 584 from 642 leaves us with 58.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 589 / 73

Step 6:
The number 73 fits into 589 8 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4188.0
Deduct 584 from 589 and we're left 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 7:
When dividing 50 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4188.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 73 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4188.06
Deduct 438 from 500 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 620 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4188.068
Subtracting 584 from 620 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4188.0684
If we take 292 away from 360, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 73 fits into 680 9 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4188.06849
Deduct 657 from 680 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
230 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4188.068493
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 219 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 110 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4188.0684931
Subtract 73 from 110 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 370 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4188.06849315
Subtracting 365 from 370 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.

The final outcome is 4188.06849315, with a leftover of 5e-09.
