We're dividing 72518504 by 981 
Let's see how many times 981 fits into 72518504.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 981, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 981

Advancing to step 2:
981 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 725 / 981

Going ahead to step 3:
725 divided by 981 is 0 with a remainder of 725.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 725 leaves us with 725.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 725, then carry on: 7251 / 981

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 7251 by 981, we get 7 and a remainder of 384.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 384 after subtracting 6867 from 7251.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 384 and repeat the process: 3848 / 981

Let's proceed to step 5:
981 goes into 3848 3 times with a remainder of 905.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 73.0
If we subtract 2943 from 3848, we get 905.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 905, then carry on: 9055 / 981

Step 6:
9055 divided by 981 is 9 with a remainder of 226.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 739.0
Deduct 8829 from 9055 and we're left with 226.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 226, then repeat: 2260 / 981

Step 7:
981 can be fit into 2260 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 298.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7392.0
If we take 1962 away from 2260, we end up with 298.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 298 and continue with: 2984 / 981

Let's proceed to step 8:
2984 divided by 981 is 3 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73923.0
Deduct 2943 from 2984 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 410 by 981, we get 0 with a remainder of 410.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73923.0
Subtract 0 from 410 to get 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4100, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 981 fits into 4100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73923.04
Subtracting 3924 from 4100 leaves us with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 1760 by 981, we get 1 with a remainder of 779.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73923.041
Deduct 981 from 1760 and we're left with 779.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7790, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 7790 by 981, we get 7 and a remainder of 923.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73923.0417
If we subtract 6867 from 7790, we get 923.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9230, and continue the process.

Step 13:
9230 divided by 981 is 9 with a remainder of 401.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73923.04179
Subtracting 8829 from 9230 leaves us with 401.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4010, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 4010 by 981, we get 4 with a remainder of 86.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73923.041794
Subtracting 3924 from 4010 leaves us with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
860 divided by 981 is 0 with a remainder of 860.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73923.041794
If we take 0 away from 860, we end up with 860.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8600, and continue the process.

Step 16:
When dividing 8600 by 981, we get 8 with a remainder of 752.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73923.04179408
The remainder is 752 after subtracting 7848 from 8600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7520, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 73923.04179408 and a remainder of 7.52e-07.
