We're dividing 72487047 by 897 
Let's see how many times 897 fits into 72487047.

On to step 1:
897 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
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 / 897

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 897 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 724 / 897

Moving on to step 3:
724 divided by 897 is 0 with a remainder of 724.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 724, we end up with 724.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 724, then carry on: 7248 / 897

Step 4:
897 goes into 7248 8 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 7176 from 7248.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 727 / 897

On to step 5:
727 divided by 897 is 0 with a remainder of 727.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 80.0
If we subtract 0 from 727, we get 727.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 727 and continue: 7270 / 897

On to step 6:
When dividing 7270 by 897, we get 8 with a remainder of 94.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 808.0
If we subtract 7176 from 7270, we get 94.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 94, then repeat: 944 / 897

On to step 7:
If we divide 944 by 897, we get 1 and a remainder of 47.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8081.0
If we subtract 897 from 944, we get 47.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 477 / 897

Moving on to step 8:
477 divided by 897 is 0 with a remainder of 477.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 80810.0
If we subtract 0 from 477, we get 477.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4770, and continue the process.

Step 9:
897 goes into 4770 5 times with a remainder of 285.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 80810.5
If we take 4485 away from 4770, we end up with 285.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2850, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
897 can be fit into 2850 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 159.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 80810.53
If we take 2691 away from 2850, we end up with 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1590, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 897 fits into 1590 1 times, leaving a remainder of 693.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 80810.531
Deduct 897 from 1590 and we're left with 693.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6930, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 6930 by 897, we get 7 with a remainder of 651.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 80810.5317
Subtracting 6279 from 6930 leaves us with 651.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
897 goes into 6510 7 times with a remainder of 231.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 80810.53177
If we take 6279 away from 6510, we end up with 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

Our division results in 80810.53177 with a remaining 0.000231.
