Let's divide 854357 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 854357.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 85 / 72

Step 2:
When dividing 85 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 85, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 134 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 134 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 72 from 134 and we're left with 62.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 623 / 72

On to step 4:
623 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 47.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtracting 576 from 623 leaves us with 47.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 475 / 72

On to step 5:
72 can be fit into 475 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1186.0
If we take 432 away from 475, we end up with 43.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 437 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 437 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11866.0
Subtract 432 from 437 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11866.0
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
500 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 68.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11866.06
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 432 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 680 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 32.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11866.069
Subtracting 648 from 680 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
320 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11866.0694
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11866.06944
If we take 288 away from 320, we end up 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.

Our division results in 11866.06944 with a remaining 3.2e-05.
