We divide 339864 by 73
We want to divide 339864 by 73.

Step 1:
The number 73 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 33 / 73

On to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 0 from 33.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 339 / 73

Step 3:
If we divide 339 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 47.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 292 from 339 to get 47.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 478 / 73

On to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 478 6 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 438 from 478, we get 40.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 406 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
406 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 465.0
Subtract 365 from 406 to get 41.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 414 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 414 by 73, we get 5 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4655.0
Deduct 365 from 414 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
490 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4655.6
If we take 438 away from 490, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 520 by 73, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4655.67
If we take 511 away from 520, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 90 by 73, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4655.671
If we take 73 away from 90, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 170 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4655.6712
Subtracting 146 from 170 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 240 by 73, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4655.67123
Subtracting 219 from 240 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 210 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4655.671232
Deduct 146 from 210 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 640 by 73, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4655.6712328
If we take 584 away from 640, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
73 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4655.67123287
If we take 511 away from 560, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4655.67123287 with a remaining 4.9e-08.
