Let's divide 640034 by 72
We want to divide 640034 by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 64 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
64 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 64, we get 64.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 64, then repeat: 640 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 640 / 72

On to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 88.0
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up with 64.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 64, then repeat: 643 / 72

On to step 5:
643 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 67.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 888.0
If we subtract 576 from 643, we get 67.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 674 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 goes into 674 9 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8889.0
If we subtract 648 from 674, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8889.3
Subtracting 216 from 260 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 440 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8889.36
Deduct 432 from 440 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8889.361
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8889.3611
Deduct 72 from 80 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 8889.3611 with a remainder of 8e-05.
