710742 divided by 72 
Our goal is to divide 710742 by 72.

Step 1:
The number 72 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 71 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 71.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 71, we end up with 71.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 71 and repeat the process: 710 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 710 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 648 from 710 and we're left with 62.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 627 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 goes into 627 8 times with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 98.0
Subtracting 576 from 627 leaves us with 51.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 514 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 goes into 514 7 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 987.0
Deduct 504 from 514 and we're left with 10.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 102 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 102 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 30.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9871.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 72 from 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9871.4
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 288 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 48.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9871.41
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 72 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9871.416
If we subtract 432 from 480, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9871.4166
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9871.4166 with a balance of 0.00048.
