We look at the division of 182531 by 73 
We want to figure out the number of times 182531 can be divided by 73.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 73 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 73

On to step 2:
The number 73 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 182 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 182 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 146 from 182, we get 36.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 365 / 73

On to step 4:
The number 73 fits into 365 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we subtract 365 from 365, we get 0.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 3 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 73 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 250.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 73

Advancing to step 6:
31 divided by 73 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2500.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
73 can be fit into 310 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2500.4
Subtract 292 from 310 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
73 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2500.42
Deduct 146 from 180 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 340 by 73, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2500.424
If we take 292 away from 340, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
480 divided by 73 is 6 with a remainder of 42.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2500.4246
Deduct 438 from 480 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
420 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2500.42465
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 365 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
550 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2500.424657
Subtracting 511 from 550 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
73 goes into 390 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2500.4246575
Deduct 365 from 390 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
73 can be fit into 250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2500.42465753
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 219 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2500.42465753 and a remainder of 3.1e-08.
