Let's divide 566984 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 566984.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 56 0 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 56 to get 56.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 566 / 72

On to step 3:
If we divide 566 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 504 from 566 to get 62.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 629 / 72

Step 4:
When dividing 629 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 53.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 78.0
If we subtract 576 from 629, we get 53.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 538 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 goes into 538 7 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 787.0
If we subtract 504 from 538, we get 34.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 344 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 goes into 344 4 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7874.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 288 from 344.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 7:
72 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7874.7
If we take 504 away from 560, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 72 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7874.77
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 504 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final result is 7874.77 with a remainder of 0.056.
