We look at the division of 73140 by 56 
Our goal is to divide 73140 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
56 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 73 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 56 from 73 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 171 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
56 can be fit into 171 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 168 from 171, we get 3.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 34 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 34 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 130.0
Subtract 0 from 34 to get 34.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 340 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1306.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 40 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1306.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1306.07
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up 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 8:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1306.071
Deduct 56 from 80 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1306.0714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1306.07142
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 11:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1306.071428
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
320 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1306.0714285
Deduct 280 from 320 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1306.07142857
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1306.07142857 with a remaining 8e-09.
