Let's divide 514711 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 514711 can be divided by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 51 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 51.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 51 and we're left with 51.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 514 / 72

Step 3:
72 goes into 514 7 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 504 from 514, we get 10.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 107 1 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71.0
If we subtract 72 from 107, we get 35.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 351 / 72

On to step 5:
72 goes into 351 4 times with a remainder of 63.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 714.0
If we take 288 away from 351, we end up with 63.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 631 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 goes into 631 8 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7148.0
Subtracting 576 from 631 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
550 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7148.7
If we take 504 away from 550, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7148.76
If we subtract 432 from 460, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7148.763
Deduct 216 from 280 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 640 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7148.7638
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7148.76388
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 7148.76388, and the remainder is 6.4e-05.
