Let's divide 699718 by 72
We want to divide 699718 by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
72 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 69 0 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 69 leaves us with 69.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 699 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 699 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 648 from 699.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 517 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 517 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 97.0
Subtracting 504 from 517 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 131 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 59.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 971.0
Subtract 72 from 131 to get 59.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 59, then repeat: 598 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 goes into 598 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9718.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 576 from 598.
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:
If we divide 220 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9718.3
Subtracting 216 from 220 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
72 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9718.3
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
400 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9718.305
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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9718.3055
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.

Our division results in 9718.3055 with a remaining 0.0004.
