Let's divide 578316 by 73
We want to divide 578316 by 73.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 57 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 57.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 57, we end up with 57.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 578 / 73

On to step 3:
578 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 511 from 578.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 673 / 73

On to step 4:
If we divide 673 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79.0
If we take 657 away from 673, we end up with 16.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 161 / 73

On to step 5:
When dividing 161 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 792.0
Deduct 146 from 161 and we're left with 15.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 156 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
73 goes into 156 2 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7922.0
Subtracting 146 from 156 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
73 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7922.1
Deduct 73 from 100 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
270 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7922.13
Subtracting 219 from 270 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
73 goes into 510 6 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7922.136
Deduct 438 from 510 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 720 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 63.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7922.1369
Subtracting 657 from 720 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Step 11:
73 can be fit into 630 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7922.13698
Deduct 584 from 630 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 460 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7922.136986
Deduct 438 from 460 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
73 goes into 220 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7922.1369863
Deduct 219 from 220 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
73 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7922.1369863
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 7922.1369863 with a remainder of 1e-08.
