We're dividing 983254 by 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 983254.

Moving on to step 1:
9 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 26.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 98 leaves us with 26.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 263 / 72

On to step 3:
72 can be fit into 263 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 216 from 263 and we're left with 47.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 472 / 72

Step 4:
472 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 136.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 432 from 472.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 405 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 can be fit into 405 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1365.0
Deduct 360 from 405 and we're left with 45.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 454 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 can be fit into 454 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13656.0
Subtract 432 from 454 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 220 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13656.3
Subtract 216 from 220 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 40 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13656.3
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13656.305
Subtract 360 from 400 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13656.3055
If we subtract 360 from 400, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final result is 13656.3055 with a remainder of 0.0004.
