We're dividing 855646 by 72 
We want to divide 855646 by 72.

Step 1:
72 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 85 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 can be fit into 85 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 72 from 85 and we're left with 13.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 135 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 goes into 135 1 times with a remainder of 63.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 72 from 135.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 636 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 636 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtract 576 from 636 to get 60.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 60, then repeat: 604 / 72

On to step 5:
If we divide 604 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1188.0
If we subtract 576 from 604, we get 28.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 286 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 can be fit into 286 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11883.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 216 from 286.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 can be fit into 700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11883.9
If we subtract 648 from 700, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 520 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11883.97
Subtract 504 from 520 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
160 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11883.972
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11883.9722
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11883.9722 with a remaining 0.00016.
