Let's divide 72686 by 99
We're looking to find how many times 99 goes into 72686.

On to step 1:
99 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 99

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 72 and continue with: 726 / 99

On to step 3:
99 goes into 726 7 times with a remainder of 33.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 693 from 726 and we're left with 33.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 338 / 99

Going ahead to step 4:
338 divided by 99 is 3 with a remainder of 41.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73.0
If we subtract 297 from 338, we get 41.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 416 / 99

Moving on to step 5:
99 goes into 416 4 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 734.0
If we subtract 396 from 416, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 6:
99 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 734.2
Subtracting 198 from 200 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
99 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 734.2
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 200 by 99, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 734.202
Subtracting 198 from 200 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 20 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 734.202
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
99 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 734.20202
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 198 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 99 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 734.20202
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 200 by 99, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 734.2020202
Subtracting 198 from 200 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
99 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 734.2020202
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 734.2020202 with a remaining 2e-08.
