We look at the division of 72961870 by 636 
We want to divide 72961870 by 636.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 636 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 636

On to step 2:
636 goes into 72 0 times with a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 729 / 636

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 636 fits into 729 1 times, leaving a remainder of 93.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 636 from 729 to get 93.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 93, then repeat: 936 / 636

Moving on to step 4:
636 goes into 936 1 times with a remainder of 300.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 636 from 936 leaves us with 300.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 300 and continue with: 3001 / 636

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 636 fits into 3001 4 times, leaving a remainder of 457.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 114.0
If we take 2544 away from 3001, we end up with 457.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 457, then carry on: 4578 / 636

Moving on to step 6:
4578 divided by 636 is 7 with a remainder of 126.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1147.0
If we take 4452 away from 4578, we end up with 126.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 126 and repeat the process: 1267 / 636

Step 7:
636 can be fit into 1267 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 631.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11471.0
Subtract 636 from 1267 to get 631.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 631 and repeat the process: 6310 / 636

On to step 8:
When dividing 6310 by 636, we get 9 with a remainder of 586.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 114719.0
Subtract 5724 from 6310 to get 586.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5860, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
636 can be fit into 5860 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 114719.9
Subtracting 5724 from 5860 leaves us with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1360 by 636, we get 2 with a remainder of 88.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114719.92
If we subtract 1272 from 1360, we get 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
636 goes into 880 1 times with a remainder of 244.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 114719.921
If we take 636 away from 880, we end up with 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 636 fits into 2440 3 times, leaving a remainder of 532.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114719.9213
If we take 1908 away from 2440, we end up with 532.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 5320 by 636, we get 8 with a remainder of 232.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 114719.92138
Subtracting 5088 from 5320 leaves us with 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2320, and continue the process.

Step 14:
636 can be fit into 2320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 412.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 114719.921383
Subtracting 1908 from 2320 leaves us with 412.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
636 goes into 4120 6 times with a remainder of 304.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 114719.9213836
If we take 3816 away from 4120, we end up with 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
If we divide 3040 by 636, we get 4 and a remainder of 496.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114719.92138364
The remainder is 496 after subtracting 2544 from 3040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4960, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 114719.92138364 with a balance of 4.96e-07.
