We divide 238823 by 73
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 238823.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 73

Step 2:
73 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 238 / 73

On to step 3:
238 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 219 from 238.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 198 / 73

Step 4:
The number 73 fits into 198 2 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we take 146 away from 198, we end up with 52.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 522 / 73

Step 5:
522 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 327.0
If we take 511 away from 522, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 113 / 73

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 113 1 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3271.0
If we take 73 away from 113, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
400 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3271.5
Deduct 365 from 400 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 8:
73 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 58.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3271.54
If we take 292 away from 350, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 580 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 69.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3271.547
Deduct 511 from 580 and we're left with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 690 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 33.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3271.5479
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 657 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 11:
73 goes into 330 4 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3271.54794
If we take 292 away from 330, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
73 goes into 380 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3271.547945
If we subtract 365 from 380, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
73 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3271.5479452
If we subtract 146 from 150, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 40 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3271.5479452
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3271.5479452 with a remaining 4e-08.
