820915 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 820915 by 72.

Step 1:
The number 72 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 82 / 72

Step 2:
72 can be fit into 82 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 72 from 82 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 100 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 72 from 100 leaves us with 28.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 289 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 289 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 114.0
Subtracting 288 from 289 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 11 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1140.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 115 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 115 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11401.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 72 from 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 can be fit into 430 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11401.5
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 360 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
72 goes into 700 9 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11401.59
Subtract 648 from 700 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11401.597
Subtract 504 from 520 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11401.5972
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
72 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11401.59722
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11401.59722 and a remainder of 1.6e-05.
