We divide 897323 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 897323.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 72

On to step 2:
When dividing 89 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 89 to get 17.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 177 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 177 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 33.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 144 away from 177, we end up with 33.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 333 / 72

Step 4:
The number 72 fits into 333 4 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 288 from 333.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 452 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 452 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1246.0
Subtracting 432 from 452 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 203 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 203 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 59.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12462.0
If we subtract 144 from 203, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 590 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12462.8
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 576 from 590.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 140 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12462.81
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 72 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
72 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12462.819
Subtract 648 from 680 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12462.8194
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12462.81944
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12462.81944 with a remaining 3.2e-05.
