We divide 617472 by 72
We want to divide 617472 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
6 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 61 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 can be fit into 61 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 61 and we're left with 61.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 61, then carry on: 617 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 goes into 617 8 times with a remainder of 41.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 576 away from 617, we end up with 41.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 414 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 414 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 85.0
If we subtract 360 from 414, we get 54.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 547 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 547 7 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 857.0
Subtract 504 from 547 to get 43.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 432 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 432 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8576.0
Deduct 432 from 432 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8576.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8576.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8576.0 with a remaining 0.0.
