We divide 720878 by 16
We want to divide 720878 by 16.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 16

Let's proceed to step 2:
16 goes into 72 4 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 64 from 72.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 80 / 16

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 80 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 45.0
Deduct 80 from 80 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
16 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 450.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 16

On to step 5:
If we divide 87 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4505.0
If we subtract 80 from 87, we get 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 16

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 78 by 16, we get 4 and a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45054.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 64 from 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 16 fits into 140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 45054.8
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 128 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 120 by 16, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 45054.87
Subtracting 112 from 120 leaves us 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 9:
80 divided by 16 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 45054.875
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 80 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 45054.875
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 45054.875
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 quotient of the division is 45054.875, and the remainder is 0.0.
