We divide 497394 by 72
Our goal is to divide 497394 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 72

Step 2:
72 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 497 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
497 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 65.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 432 from 497, we get 65.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 65 and continue: 653 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 653 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 69.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 648 from 653.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 59 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 59.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 690.0
Subtracting 0 from 59 leaves us with 59.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 594 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 594 8 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6908.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 576 from 594.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6908.2
If we take 144 away from 180, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
360 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6908.25
Subtract 360 from 360 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6908.25
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
0 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6908.25
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6908.25, with a leftover of 0.0.
