We're dividing 70041 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 70041.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 70 / 72

On to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 70 0 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 700 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 700 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 52.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 648 from 700, we get 52.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 524 / 72

Step 4:
72 goes into 524 7 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 97.0
Subtracting 504 from 524 leaves us with 20.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 201 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 can be fit into 201 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 972.0
If we subtract 144 from 201, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 570 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 66.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 972.7
Subtract 504 from 570 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 660 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 972.79
If we subtract 648 from 660, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 972.791
If we take 72 away from 120, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 972.7916
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 972.79166
If we subtract 432 from 480, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 972.79166 with a remainder of 4.8e-05.
