Let's divide 724940 by 15
We want to divide 724940 by 15.

Let's proceed to step 1:
15 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
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 / 15

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 15, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 60 from 72, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 124 / 15

Step 3:
If we divide 124 by 15, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Deduct 120 from 124 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 15

Let's proceed to step 4:
15 goes into 49 3 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 483.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 45 from 49.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 44 / 15

Step 5:
When dividing 44 by 15, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4832.0
If we subtract 30 from 44, we get 14.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 140 / 15

Advancing to step 6:
15 can be fit into 140 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48329.0
If we take 135 away from 140, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
50 divided by 15 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48329.3
Deduct 45 from 50 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 50 by 15, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 48329.33
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 45 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final result is 48329.33 with a remainder of 0.005.
