Let's divide 712688 by 73
We're looking to find how many times 73 goes into 712688.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 71 / 73

Let's proceed to step 2:
71 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 71.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 71 to get 71.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 712 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 712 by 73, we get 9 and a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 657 from 712 to get 55.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 55, then carry on: 556 / 73

Let's proceed to step 4:
73 goes into 556 7 times with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 97.0
Deduct 511 from 556 and we're left with 45.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 458 / 73

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 458 by 73, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 976.0
Deduct 438 from 458 and we're left with 20.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 208 / 73

Moving on to step 6:
208 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 62.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9762.0
If we take 146 away from 208, we end up 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.

On to step 7:
620 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9762.8
If we subtract 584 from 620, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 360 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 68.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9762.84
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 292 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 680 by 73, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9762.849
Subtracting 657 from 680 leaves us with 23.
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 10:
If we divide 230 by 73, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9762.8493
Deduct 219 from 230 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
110 divided by 73 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9762.84931
If we take 73 away from 110, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
370 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9762.849315
If we subtract 365 from 370, we get 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 13:
50 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9762.849315
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
73 goes into 500 6 times with a remainder of 62.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9762.84931506
Subtracting 438 from 500 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 9762.84931506 and a remainder of 6.2e-08.
