72948 ÷ 9 
We want to divide 72948 by 9.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 9 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 9

On to step 2:
9 can be fit into 72 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 72 from 72 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 9

Let's proceed to step 3:
9 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we subtract 9 from 9, we get 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 9

On to step 4:
9 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 810.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 9

On to step 5:
9 goes into 48 5 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8105.0
If we subtract 45 from 48, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 30 3 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8105.3
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 27 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 30 by 9, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8105.33
Subtracting 27 from 30 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8105.33 with a remaining 0.003.
