We divide 845587 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 845587.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 84 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
84 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 84 to get 12.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 125 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 goes into 125 1 times with a remainder of 53.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 72 from 125, we get 53.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 535 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 can be fit into 535 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 117.0
Subtracting 504 from 535 leaves us with 31.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 318 / 72

On to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 318 4 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1174.0
Subtracting 288 from 318 leaves us with 30.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 307 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 307 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11744.0
Deduct 288 from 307 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
190 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 46.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11744.2
Deduct 144 from 190 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 460 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11744.26
If we subtract 432 from 460, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
72 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11744.263
Subtract 216 from 280 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11744.2638
Subtracting 576 from 640 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 11:
72 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11744.26388
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11744.26388, and the remainder is 6.4e-05.
