Let's divide 814744 by 72
We want to divide 814744 by 72.

On to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
81 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 81 leaves us with 9.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 94 / 72

Step 3:
72 can be fit into 94 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 72 from 94.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
227 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 113.0
Deduct 216 from 227 and we're left with 11.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 114 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 114 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1131.0
If we take 72 away from 114, we end up with 42.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 424 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
424 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 64.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11315.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 360 from 424.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11315.8
If we subtract 576 from 640, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 640 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11315.88
If we subtract 576 from 640, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11315.88, and the remainder is 0.064.
