We divide 890729 by 72
We want to divide 890729 by 72.

Step 1:
72 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 89 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 72 from 89.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 170 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 170 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 144 from 170 to get 26.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 267 / 72

On to step 4:
When dividing 267 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 123.0
If we subtract 216 from 267, we get 51.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 512 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 512 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1237.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 504 from 512.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 72

On to step 6:
89 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12371.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 72 from 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
72 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12371.2
Subtract 144 from 170 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
72 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12371.23
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 216 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
72 can be fit into 440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12371.236
Deduct 432 from 440 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12371.2361
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 11:
72 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12371.23611
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12371.23611 with a balance of 8e-06.
