We look at the division of 96904 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 96904.

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.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 96 / 72

On to step 2:
96 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 72 from 96.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 249 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 216 from 249 and we're left with 33.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 330 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
330 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 134.0
If we take 288 away from 330, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 424 / 72

On to step 5:
72 goes into 424 5 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1345.0
Deduct 360 from 424 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1345.8
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 576 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1345.88
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1345.88, with a leftover of 0.064.
