We're dividing 726908 by 1 
Our goal is to divide 726908 by 1.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 1, we get 7 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 7 from 7 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 2 / 1

Let's proceed to step 2:
1 can be fit into 2 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 72.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 1

Let's proceed to step 3:
1 can be fit into 6 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 726.0
If we subtract 6 from 6, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 1

Let's proceed to step 4:
9 divided by 1 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7269.0
Deduct 9 from 9 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 0 / 1

On to step 5:
1 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 72690.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 1

Advancing to step 6:
The number 1 fits into 8 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 726908.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 1 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 726908.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 726908.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 726908.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
