723653 ÷ 72 
Our goal is to divide 723653 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 72, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 3 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
3 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 36 / 72

On to step 4:
72 goes into 36 0 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100.0
Deduct 0 from 36 and we're left with 36.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 365 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 365 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1005.0
If we subtract 360 from 365, we get 5.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 53 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 53 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 53.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10050.0
Subtract 0 from 53 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 530 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10050.7
Subtract 504 from 530 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
72 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10050.73
Subtract 216 from 260 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
440 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10050.736
Subtract 432 from 440 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10050.7361
Subtracting 72 from 80 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
72 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10050.73611
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10050.73611 with a remaining 8e-06.
