981052 ÷ 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 981052.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 98 leaves us with 26.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 261 / 72

On to step 3:
When dividing 261 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 216 from 261 to get 45.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 450 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 450 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 136.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 432 from 450.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 185 / 72

On to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 185 2 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1362.0
Subtract 144 from 185 to get 41.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 412 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 goes into 412 5 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13625.0
Deduct 360 from 412 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 520 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13625.7
Deduct 504 from 520 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13625.72
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
72 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13625.722
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 13625.722 with a remainder of 0.0016.
