We look at the division of 278446 by 73 
Let's see how many times 73 fits into 278446.

On to step 1:
73 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 73

On to step 2:
73 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 73

Moving on to step 3:
73 can be fit into 278 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 219 from 278 and we're left with 59.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 59, then repeat: 594 / 73

Step 4:
594 divided by 73 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 584 from 594.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 104 / 73

Moving on to step 5:
73 goes into 104 1 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 381.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 73 from 104.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 316 / 73

Step 6:
316 divided by 73 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3814.0
If we take 292 away from 316, we end up 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.

On to step 7:
The number 73 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3814.3
Subtracting 219 from 240 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 73 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3814.32
If we subtract 146 from 210, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 640 by 73, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3814.328
If we subtract 584 from 640, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 560 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3814.3287
Subtract 511 from 560 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 11:
73 goes into 490 6 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3814.32876
Subtract 438 from 490 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 520 by 73, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3814.328767
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 511 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
73 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3814.3287671
Subtract 73 from 90 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
73 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3814.32876712
If we subtract 146 from 170, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3814.32876712, with a leftover of 2.4e-08.
