72879017 ÷ 908 
We're looking to find how many times 908 goes into 72879017.

Let's proceed to step 1:
908 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 908

On to step 2:
908 goes into 72 0 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 728 / 908

On to step 3:
728 divided by 908 is 0 with a remainder of 728.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 728 after subtracting 0 from 728.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 728 and continue with: 7287 / 908

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 7287 by 908, we get 8 with a remainder of 23.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 7264 away from 7287, we end up with 23.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 908

Moving on to step 5:
908 can be fit into 239 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 239.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 80.0
Deduct 0 from 239 and we're left with 239.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 239 and continue with: 2390 / 908

Let's proceed to step 6:
908 can be fit into 2390 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 574.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 802.0
If we subtract 1816 from 2390, we get 574.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 574 and continue: 5741 / 908

On to step 7:
908 goes into 5741 6 times with a remainder of 293.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8026.0
The remainder is 293 after subtracting 5448 from 5741.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 293, then repeat: 2937 / 908

On to step 8:
The number 908 fits into 2937 3 times, leaving a remainder of 213.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80263.0
The remainder is 213 after subtracting 2724 from 2937.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
2130 divided by 908 is 2 with a remainder of 314.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 80263.2
If we take 1816 away from 2130, we end up with 314.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3140, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 3140 by 908, we get 3 with a remainder of 416.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80263.23
Subtract 2724 from 3140 to get 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
4160 divided by 908 is 4 with a remainder of 528.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80263.234
The remainder is 528 after subtracting 3632 from 4160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
908 goes into 5280 5 times with a remainder of 740.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80263.2345
The remainder is 740 after subtracting 4540 from 5280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
908 can be fit into 7400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 80263.23458
Deduct 7264 from 7400 and we're left with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 1360 by 908, we get 1 with a remainder of 452.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80263.234581
The remainder is 452 after subtracting 908 from 1360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
4520 divided by 908 is 4 with a remainder of 888.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 80263.2345814
Subtracting 3632 from 4520 leaves us with 888.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 8880 by 908, we get 9 with a remainder of 708.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 80263.23458149
Subtracting 8172 from 8880 leaves us with 708.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7080, and continue the process.

The final result is 80263.23458149 with a remainder of 7.08e-07.
