72506542 divided by 71 
We want to divide 72506542 by 71.

Advancing to step 1:
71 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 71

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 71 fits into 72 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 71 from 72 to get 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 71

Let's proceed to step 3:
71 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 150 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
71 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 102.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 142 from 150.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 86 / 71

Let's proceed to step 5:
71 goes into 86 1 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1021.0
Subtracting 71 from 86 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 155 / 71

Advancing to step 6:
71 can be fit into 155 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10212.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 142 from 155.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 134 / 71

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 134 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 102121.0
If we subtract 71 from 134, we get 63.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 632 / 71

Moving on to step 8:
71 can be fit into 632 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1021218.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 568 from 632.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 640 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1021218.9
Subtract 639 from 640 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 10 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1021218.9
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
71 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1021218.901
If we subtract 71 from 100, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 290 by 71, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1021218.9014
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 284 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
60 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1021218.9014
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 600 by 71, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1021218.901408
Subtracting 568 from 600 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.

Step 15:
When dividing 320 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1021218.9014084
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 284 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 360 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1021218.90140845
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 355 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1021218.90140845, with a leftover of 5e-09.
