126739 divided by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 126739 can be divided by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
12 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 126 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 126 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 126 to get 54.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 547 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 can be fit into 547 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 504 from 547 to get 43.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 433 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 433 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtract 432 from 433 to get 1.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 19 / 72

Step 6:
The number 72 fits into 19 0 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1760.0
If we subtract 0 from 19, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1760.2
Deduct 144 from 190 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
460 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1760.26
Subtract 432 from 460 to 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.

Let's proceed 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: 1760.263
If we subtract 216 from 280, we 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 10:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1760.2638
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1760.26388
If we subtract 576 from 640, we 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.

Our division results in 1760.26388 with a remaining 6.4e-05.
