873283 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 873283 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 87 to get 15.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 153 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 153 2 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 144 from 153, we get 9.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 92 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 can be fit into 92 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 121.0
Deduct 72 from 92 and we're left with 20.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 208 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 goes into 208 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1212.0
If we subtract 144 from 208, we get 64.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 64, then repeat: 643 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 643 8 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12128.0
Subtract 576 from 643 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
72 goes into 670 9 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12128.9
Subtract 648 from 670 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
220 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12128.93
Subtracting 216 from 220 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12128.93
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
72 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12128.9305
If we take 360 away from 400, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12128.93055
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 360 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 12128.93055, with a leftover of 4e-05.
