124675 ÷ 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 124675 can be divided by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 12, we end up with 12.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 124 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 124 1 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 124, we end up with 52.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 526 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 goes into 526 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 504 from 526 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 227 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 227 3 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 173.0
Deduct 216 from 227 and we're left with 11.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 115 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 goes into 115 1 times with a remainder of 43.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1731.0
If we take 72 away from 115, we end up with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
430 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1731.5
Deduct 360 from 430 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 700 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1731.59
Subtract 648 from 700 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1731.597
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 504 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
160 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1731.5972
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1731.59722
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1731.59722, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
