72449461 ÷ 871 
We want to divide 72449461 by 871.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 871 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 871

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 871 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 724 / 871

Going ahead to step 3:
724 divided by 871 is 0 with a remainder of 724.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 724, we end up with 724.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 724, then carry on: 7244 / 871

On to step 4:
The number 871 fits into 7244 8 times, leaving a remainder of 276.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 6968 from 7244, we get 276.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 276 and continue: 2769 / 871

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 871 fits into 2769 3 times, leaving a remainder of 156.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 83.0
If we subtract 2613 from 2769, we get 156.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 156, then repeat: 1564 / 871

Advancing to step 6:
871 can be fit into 1564 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 693.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 831.0
Deduct 871 from 1564 and we're left with 693.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 693 and repeat the process: 6936 / 871

Step 7:
871 can be fit into 6936 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 839.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8317.0
If we subtract 6097 from 6936, we get 839.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 839, then repeat: 8391 / 871

Advancing to step 8:
The number 871 fits into 8391 9 times, leaving a remainder of 552.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83179.0
If we subtract 7839 from 8391, we get 552.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5520, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 871 fits into 5520 6 times, leaving a remainder of 294.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83179.6
If we subtract 5226 from 5520, we get 294.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
2940 divided by 871 is 3 with a remainder of 327.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83179.63
If we take 2613 away from 2940, we end up with 327.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 871 fits into 3270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 657.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83179.633
Subtract 2613 from 3270 to get 657.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6570, and continue the process.

Our division results in 83179.633 with a remaining 0.0657.
