Let's divide 917798 by 72
We want to divide 917798 by 72.

On to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 91 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 91 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 72 from 91.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 197 / 72

Step 3:
197 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 144 away from 197, we end up with 53.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 537 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 537 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 127.0
Deduct 504 from 537 and we're left with 33.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 339 / 72

On to step 5:
339 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 51.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1274.0
If we take 288 away from 339, we end up with 51.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 518 / 72

Step 6:
72 can be fit into 518 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12747.0
If we take 504 away from 518, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 140 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 68.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12747.1
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 72 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
680 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 32.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12747.19
Subtract 648 from 680 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 320 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12747.194
Subtract 288 from 320 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 320 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12747.1944
If we take 288 away from 320, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12747.1944 with a balance of 0.00032.
