We divide 71695549 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 71695549.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 71 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 71 by 72, we get 0 with 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.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 716 / 72

On to step 3:
72 can be fit into 716 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 648 from 716.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 689 / 72

On to step 4:
When dividing 689 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 648 from 689.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 415 / 72

On to step 5:
If we divide 415 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 995.0
Deduct 360 from 415 and we're left with 55.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 555 / 72

On to step 6:
When dividing 555 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9957.0
If we subtract 504 from 555, we get 51.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 51, then carry on: 514 / 72

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 514 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 10.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 99577.0
If we take 504 away from 514, we end up with 10.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 109 / 72

Let's proceed to step 8:
109 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 995771.0
If we take 72 away from 109, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 72 fits into 370 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 995771.5
If we take 360 away from 370, 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.

On to step 10:
72 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 995771.51
If we take 72 away from 100, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
280 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 64.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 995771.513
If we take 216 away from 280, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
72 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 995771.5138
Subtracting 576 from 640 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 995771.51388
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 995771.51388 with a remaining 6.4e-05.
