We look at the division of 72379717 by 887 
We want to divide 72379717 by 887.

On to step 1:
887 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 887

Step 2:
72 divided by 887 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 723 / 887

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 723 by 887, we get 0 and a remainder of 723.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 723 after subtracting 0 from 723.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 723 and continue with: 7237 / 887

Step 4:
887 goes into 7237 8 times with a remainder of 141.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 7096 from 7237, we get 141.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 141, then carry on: 1419 / 887

Let's proceed to step 5:
1419 divided by 887 is 1 with a remainder of 532.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81.0
Deduct 887 from 1419 and we're left with 532.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 532, then repeat: 5327 / 887

Step 6:
When dividing 5327 by 887, we get 6 with a remainder of 5.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 816.0
Subtracting 5322 from 5327 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 51 / 887

Step 7:
887 can be fit into 51 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8160.0
Deduct 0 from 51 and we're left with 51.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 517 / 887

Let's proceed to step 8:
517 divided by 887 is 0 with a remainder of 517.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81600.0
If we take 0 away from 517, we end up with 517.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5170, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 5170 by 887, we get 5 and a remainder of 735.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81600.5
The remainder is 735 after subtracting 4435 from 5170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 887 fits into 7350 8 times, leaving a remainder of 254.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81600.58
Deduct 7096 from 7350 and we're left with 254.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
2540 divided by 887 is 2 with a remainder of 766.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81600.582
If we subtract 1774 from 2540, we get 766.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
887 can be fit into 7660 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 564.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 81600.5828
Subtracting 7096 from 7660 leaves us with 564.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5640, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
887 goes into 5640 6 times with a remainder of 318.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81600.58286
Subtract 5322 from 5640 to get 318.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3180, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 3180 by 887, we get 3 with a remainder of 519.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81600.582863
If we subtract 2661 from 3180, we get 519.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5190, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 5190 by 887, we get 5 with a remainder of 755.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81600.5828635
Deduct 4435 from 5190 and we're left with 755.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7550, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 7550 by 887, we get 8 and a remainder of 454.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81600.58286358
Subtracting 7096 from 7550 leaves us with 454.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4540, and continue the process.

Our division results in 81600.58286358 with a remaining 4.54e-07.
