We divide 891642 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 891642.

Step 1:
The number 72 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 89 / 72

On to step 2:
When dividing 89 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 89, we end up with 17.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 171 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 goes into 171 2 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 144 from 171 and we're left with 27.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 276 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 goes into 276 3 times with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 123.0
Subtract 216 from 276 to get 60.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 60, then repeat: 604 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 604 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1238.0
Deduct 576 from 604 and we're left with 28.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 282 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 can be fit into 282 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12383.0
Subtract 216 from 282 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 660 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12383.9
If we take 648 away from 660, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12383.91
Deduct 72 from 120 and we're left 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12383.916
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12383.9166
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 12383.9166, with a leftover of 0.00048.
