We look at the division of 717874 by 73 
We want to divide 717874 by 73.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 73, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 73

Step 2:
The number 73 fits into 71 0 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 71, we end up with 71.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 717 / 73

On to step 3:
If we divide 717 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 60.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 657 from 717 leaves us with 60.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 60, then repeat: 608 / 73

Step 4:
73 goes into 608 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 98.0
If we take 584 away from 608, we end up with 24.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 247 / 73

Step 5:
73 can be fit into 247 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 983.0
If we subtract 219 from 247, we get 28.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 284 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
284 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9833.0
If we subtract 219 from 284, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 650 8 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9833.8
If we take 584 away from 650, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
660 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9833.89
Subtract 657 from 660 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9833.89
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 300 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9833.8904
Deduct 292 from 300 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
80 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9833.89041
Subtracting 73 from 80 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
73 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9833.89041
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 700 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 43.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9833.8904109
If we subtract 657 from 700, we get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 430 by 73, we get 5 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9833.89041095
Subtracting 365 from 430 leaves us with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9833.89041095 with a balance of 6.5e-08.
