Let's divide 584729 by 72
We want to divide 584729 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
5 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 58 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 goes into 58 0 times with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 58 to get 58.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 584 / 72

On to step 3:
72 goes into 584 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 576 from 584 to get 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 87 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we take 72 away from 87, we end up with 15.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 152 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 152 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 812.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 144 from 152.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 89 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8121.0
Deduct 72 from 89 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
72 can be fit into 170 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8121.2
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 144 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 72 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8121.23
Deduct 216 from 260 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
440 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8121.236
If we subtract 432 from 440, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
80 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8121.2361
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 80 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8121.23611
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8121.23611 with a balance of 8e-06.
