72917957 divided by 49 
We want to divide 72917957 by 49.

Moving on to step 1:
7 divided by 49 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 49

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 49 from 72 leaves us with 23.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 239 / 49

Advancing to step 3:
49 goes into 239 4 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 196 from 239 to get 43.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 431 / 49

On to step 4:
49 goes into 431 8 times with a remainder of 39.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148.0
Subtract 392 from 431 to get 39.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 397 / 49

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 397 by 49, we get 8 with a remainder of 5.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1488.0
Deduct 392 from 397 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 49

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 59 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14881.0
Subtract 49 from 59 to get 10.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 105 / 49

Advancing to step 7:
105 divided by 49 is 2 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 148812.0
Subtracting 98 from 105 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 49

Moving on to step 8:
49 can be fit into 77 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1488121.0
If we subtract 49 from 77, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
280 divided by 49 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1488121.5
If we take 245 away from 280, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
49 goes into 350 7 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1488121.57
Subtract 343 from 350 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 49 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1488121.571
Subtracting 49 from 70 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.

Step 12:
49 can be fit into 210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1488121.5714
If we take 196 away from 210, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
49 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1488121.57142
If we take 98 away from 140, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 14:
49 can be fit into 420 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1488121.571428
Subtract 392 from 420 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
49 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1488121.5714285
Subtract 245 from 280 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
49 goes into 350 7 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1488121.57142857
Subtracting 343 from 350 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1488121.57142857, and the remainder is 7e-09.
