We're dividing 687947 by 73 
We want to divide 687947 by 73.

Going ahead to step 1:
73 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 73

Step 2:
When dividing 68 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 68.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 68 to get 68.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 68, then repeat: 687 / 73

Let's proceed to step 3:
687 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 30.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 657 from 687 leaves us with 30.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 309 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 309 4 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 94.0
Deduct 292 from 309 and we're left with 17.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 174 / 73

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 174 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 942.0
Subtract 146 from 174 to get 28.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 287 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
73 goes into 287 3 times with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9423.0
If we take 219 away from 287, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
680 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9423.9
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 657 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 230 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9423.93
Subtract 219 from 230 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 73 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9423.931
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 73 from 110.
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 10:
73 can be fit into 370 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9423.9315
If we take 365 away from 370, 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 11:
When dividing 50 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9423.9315
If we subtract 0 from 50, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
500 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 62.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9423.931506
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
620 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9423.9315068
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.

Advancing to step 14:
360 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9423.93150684
Deduct 292 from 360 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 9423.93150684, with a leftover of 6.8e-08.
