We're dividing 726486 by 44 
We want to figure out the number of times 726486 can be divided by 44.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 44

Step 2:
If we divide 72 by 44, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 44 from 72 leaves us with 28.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 286 / 44

Moving on to step 3:
44 can be fit into 286 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 264 from 286 to get 22.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 224 / 44

Step 4:
224 divided by 44 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 165.0
Deduct 220 from 224 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 44

Advancing to step 5:
48 divided by 44 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1651.0
If we subtract 44 from 48, we get 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 44

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 46 by 44, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16511.0
Subtract 44 from 46 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 44, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16511.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 44 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 16511.04
Subtracting 176 from 200 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 44, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 16511.045
Subtract 220 from 240 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 44, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16511.0454
If we subtract 176 from 200, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 44, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16511.04545
Subtracting 220 from 240 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
200 divided by 44 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16511.045454
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 176 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 44 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16511.0454545
Subtracting 220 from 240 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
44 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16511.04545454
If we subtract 176 from 200, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 16511.04545454, with a leftover of 2.4e-08.
