840539 divided by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 840539 can be divided by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 84 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 84, we end up with 12.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 120 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 120 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 72 from 120 and we're left with 48.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 485 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 goes into 485 6 times with a remainder of 53.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 116.0
Deduct 432 from 485 and we're left with 53.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 533 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
533 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1167.0
If we take 504 away from 533, we end up with 29.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 299 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 299 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 11.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11674.0
Subtract 288 from 299 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 110 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11674.1
Subtracting 72 from 110 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
72 can be fit into 380 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11674.15
If we subtract 360 from 380, we 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.

Step 9:
72 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11674.152
If we subtract 144 from 200, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11674.1527
If we take 504 away from 560, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
72 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11674.15277
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 504 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11674.15277, with a leftover of 5.6e-05.
