231695 divided by 73 
Our goal is to divide 231695 by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
23 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 231 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
73 goes into 231 3 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 219 from 231 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 126 / 73

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 126 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 53.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 73 from 126.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 539 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 539 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 28.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 317.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 511 from 539.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 285 / 73

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 285 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 66.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3173.0
Subtracting 219 from 285 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
73 can be fit into 660 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3173.9
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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 30 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3173.9
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 300 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3173.904
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.

On to step 10:
80 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3173.9041
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 11:
73 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3173.9041
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 700 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 43.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3173.904109
Deduct 657 from 700 and we're left with 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 13:
The number 73 fits into 430 5 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3173.9041095
If we take 365 away from 430, we end up 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.

Step 14:
650 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3173.90410958
If we subtract 584 from 650, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

The final result is 3173.90410958 with a remainder of 6.6e-08.
