725285 ÷ 12 
We want to divide 725285 by 12.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 12 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 12

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 12, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 72 away from 72, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 5 / 12

On to step 3:
12 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 12

Step 4:
The number 12 fits into 52 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 604.0
Deduct 48 from 52 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 12

Step 5:
12 goes into 48 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6044.0
Subtracting 48 from 48 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 5 / 12

Step 6:
12 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60440.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
12 can be fit into 50 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60440.4
Subtract 48 from 50 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
20 divided by 12 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60440.41
Subtract 12 from 20 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 12, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60440.416
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 12 fits into 80 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 60440.4166
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 60440.4166 with a remaining 8e-05.
