854689 divided by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 854689.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 85 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 72 from 85.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 134 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 134 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 62.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 72 from 134 to get 62.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 626 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 626 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtracting 576 from 626 leaves us with 50.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 508 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 508 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1187.0
Subtracting 504 from 508 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11870.0
If we take 0 away from 49, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 490 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 58.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11870.6
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 432 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 580 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11870.68
Deduct 576 from 580 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
72 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11870.68
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11870.6805
If we subtract 360 from 400, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11870.68055
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 360 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11870.68055, and the remainder is 4e-05.
