Let's divide 550562 by 72
Our goal is to divide 550562 by 72.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 550 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 550 7 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 504 from 550 leaves us with 46.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 465 / 72

On to step 4:
465 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76.0
Deduct 432 from 465 and we're left with 33.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 336 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 336 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 764.0
Deduct 288 from 336 and we're left with 48.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 482 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 482 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7646.0
Deduct 432 from 482 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 500 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7646.6
Deduct 432 from 500 and we're left with 68.
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:
72 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7646.69
Subtracting 648 from 680 leaves us 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.

On to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7646.694
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.

Advancing to step 10:
72 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7646.6944
If we subtract 288 from 320, we 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.

The final outcome is 7646.6944, with a leftover of 0.00032.
