72887842 ÷ 550 
Our goal is to divide 72887842 by 550.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 550 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 550

Moving on to step 2:
550 goes into 72 0 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 728 / 550

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 728 by 550, we get 1 with a remainder of 178.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 178 after subtracting 550 from 728.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 178, then repeat: 1788 / 550

Advancing to step 4:
The number 550 fits into 1788 3 times, leaving a remainder of 138.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 138 after subtracting 1650 from 1788.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 138, then repeat: 1387 / 550

Advancing to step 5:
The number 550 fits into 1387 2 times, leaving a remainder of 287.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 132.0
Subtract 1100 from 1387 to get 287.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 287, then carry on: 2878 / 550

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 2878 by 550, we get 5 with a remainder of 128.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1325.0
The remainder is 128 after subtracting 2750 from 2878.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 128 and continue with: 1284 / 550

Let's proceed to step 7:
550 goes into 1284 2 times with a remainder of 184.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13252.0
The remainder is 184 after subtracting 1100 from 1284.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 184 and repeat the process: 1842 / 550

On to step 8:
The number 550 fits into 1842 3 times, leaving a remainder of 192.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 132523.0
Subtract 1650 from 1842 to get 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 1920 by 550, we get 3 and a remainder of 270.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 132523.3
If we subtract 1650 from 1920, we get 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 2700 by 550, we get 4 and a remainder of 500.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 132523.34
If we take 2200 away from 2700, we end up with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 5000 by 550, we get 9 with a remainder of 50.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 132523.349
If we subtract 4950 from 5000, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
550 can be fit into 500 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 500.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 132523.349
The remainder is 500 after subtracting 0 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
550 can be fit into 5000 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 132523.34909
Subtract 4950 from 5000 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 500 by 550, we get 0 and a remainder of 500.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 132523.34909
The remainder is 500 after subtracting 0 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
When dividing 5000 by 550, we get 9 with a remainder of 50.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 132523.3490909
Deduct 4950 from 5000 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.

On to step 16:
550 can be fit into 500 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 500.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 132523.3490909
Subtracting 0 from 500 leaves us with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 132523.3490909 and a remainder of 5e-07.
