We divide 982508 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 982508 can be divided by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 98 leaves us with 26.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 262 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 262 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 216 from 262, we get 46.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 465 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
72 goes into 465 6 times with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 136.0
If we take 432 away from 465, we end up with 33.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 330 / 72

On to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 330 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1364.0
Subtract 288 from 330 to get 42.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 428 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 428 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 68.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13645.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 360 from 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
680 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 32.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13645.9
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
320 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13645.94
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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 13645.944
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.

The final result is 13645.944 with a remainder of 0.0032.
