Let's divide 912966 by 72
We want to divide 912966 by 72.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 91 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
91 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 91 to get 19.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 192 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 192 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 144 from 192 leaves us with 48.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 489 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
489 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
Subtract 432 from 489 to get 57.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 576 / 72

Step 5:
The number 72 fits into 576 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1268.0
Subtract 576 from 576 to get 0.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 12680.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12680.0
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
600 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12680.08
Subtract 576 from 600 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
240 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12680.083
If we take 216 away from 240, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 240 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12680.0833
Subtracting 216 from 240 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12680.0833 and a remainder of 0.00024.
