We divide 121754 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 121754 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
12 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 121 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 121 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 121, we end up with 49.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 497 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 497 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 65.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 432 from 497 leaves us with 65.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 655 / 72

On to step 5:
72 goes into 655 9 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 169.0
If we subtract 648 from 655, we get 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 74 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1691.0
Deduct 72 from 74 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1691.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
200 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1691.02
Subtract 144 from 200 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 9:
72 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1691.027
If we take 504 away from 560, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 10:
560 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1691.0277
If we take 504 away from 560, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final result is 1691.0277 with a remainder of 0.00056.
