We divide 878754 by 73
We want to divide 878754 by 73.

Moving on to step 1:
73 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 73

On to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 73, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 73 away from 87, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 73

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 148 by 73, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 146 from 148.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 73

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 27 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 120.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 275 / 73

Step 5:
275 divided by 73 is 3 with a remainder of 56.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1203.0
Subtract 219 from 275 to get 56.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 564 / 73

Going ahead to step 6:
73 goes into 564 7 times with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12037.0
Subtract 511 from 564 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
73 goes into 530 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12037.7
If we subtract 511 from 530, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
190 divided by 73 is 2 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12037.72
Subtracting 146 from 190 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 440 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12037.726
If we subtract 438 from 440, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
73 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12037.726
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 73 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12037.72602
Subtract 146 from 200 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
73 can be fit into 540 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12037.726027
If we take 511 away from 540, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
73 can be fit into 290 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12037.7260273
If we take 219 away from 290, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
73 can be fit into 710 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12037.72602739
If we take 657 away from 710, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12037.72602739 with a balance of 5.3e-08.
