We're dividing 897359 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 897359.

Moving on to step 1:
72 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 72

On to step 2:
72 goes into 89 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 89 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 177 / 72

Step 3:
The number 72 fits into 177 2 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 144 from 177 to get 33.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 333 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 goes into 333 4 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124.0
If we subtract 288 from 333, we get 45.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 455 / 72

On to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 455 6 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1246.0
If we subtract 432 from 455, we get 23.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 can be fit into 239 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12463.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 216 from 239.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
230 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12463.3
If we take 216 away from 230, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12463.31
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 72 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
680 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 32.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12463.319
If we take 648 away from 680, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 320 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12463.3194
If we subtract 288 from 320, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12463.31944
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final result is 12463.31944 with a remainder of 3.2e-05.
