We're dividing 584885 by 72 
We want to divide 584885 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 72

On to step 2:
72 can be fit into 58 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 0 from 58.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 584 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 goes into 584 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 576 away from 584, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 88 / 72

Step 4:
72 goes into 88 1 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we take 72 away from 88, we end up with 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 168 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 812.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 144 from 168.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 245 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 245 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8123.0
If we take 216 away from 245, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 290 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8123.4
If we take 288 away from 290, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
20 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8123.4
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
72 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8123.402
Subtracting 144 from 200 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
72 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8123.4027
If we subtract 504 from 560, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 560 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 56.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8123.40277
Subtract 504 from 560 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8123.40277, and the remainder is 5.6e-05.
