Let's divide 862817 by 73
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 862817.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 86 / 73

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 86 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 73 from 86 and we're left with 13.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 132 / 73

On to step 3:
132 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 59.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 73 from 132, we get 59.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 598 / 73

On to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 598 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
If we subtract 584 from 598, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 73

Step 5:
If we divide 141 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 68.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1181.0
Subtract 73 from 141 to get 68.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 687 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 687 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11819.0
Subtract 657 from 687 to 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 7:
300 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11819.4
Subtract 292 from 300 to get 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 8:
The number 73 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11819.41
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 9:
When dividing 70 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11819.41
If we take 0 away from 70, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
700 divided by 73 is 9 with a remainder of 43.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11819.4109
If we take 657 away from 700, we end up 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.

Step 11:
When dividing 430 by 73, we get 5 with a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11819.41095
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.

Moving on to step 12:
73 goes into 650 8 times with a remainder of 66.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11819.410958
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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 73 fits into 660 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11819.4109589
If we subtract 657 from 660, we 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 14:
30 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11819.4109589
Subtract 0 from 30 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 11819.4109589 with a balance of 3e-08.
