525729 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 525729 by 72.

Step 1:
72 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 52 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 52.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 52, we get 52.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 525 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 525 7 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 504 from 525 and we're left with 21.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 217 / 72

On to step 4:
217 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 73.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 216 from 217.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 730.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 129 / 72

Step 6:
If we divide 129 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 57.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7301.0
If we take 72 away from 129, we end up with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 goes into 570 7 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7301.7
Deduct 504 from 570 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
660 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7301.79
Subtract 648 from 660 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 120 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7301.791
Deduct 72 from 120 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7301.7916
If we subtract 432 from 480, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7301.79166
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7301.79166 and a remainder of 4.8e-05.
