72208905 divided by 872 
We're looking to find how many times 872 goes into 72208905.

Going ahead to step 1:
872 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 872

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 divided by 872 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 722 / 872

Let's proceed to step 3:
872 can be fit into 722 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 722.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 722, we get 722.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 722, then repeat: 7220 / 872

On to step 4:
The number 872 fits into 7220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 244.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 6976 from 7220 and we're left with 244.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 244 and repeat the process: 2448 / 872

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 2448 by 872, we get 2 and a remainder of 704.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
The remainder is 704 after subtracting 1744 from 2448.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 704 and repeat the process: 7049 / 872

Advancing to step 6:
872 can be fit into 7049 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 828.0
Deduct 6976 from 7049 and we're left with 73.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 73, then carry on: 730 / 872

Going ahead to step 7:
730 divided by 872 is 0 with a remainder of 730.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8280.0
Subtract 0 from 730 to get 730.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 730 and continue: 7305 / 872

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 7305 by 872, we get 8 and a remainder of 329.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82808.0
Subtracting 6976 from 7305 leaves us with 329.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
872 can be fit into 3290 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 674.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 82808.3
Deduct 2616 from 3290 and we're left with 674.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 6740 by 872, we get 7 with a remainder of 636.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 82808.37
Deduct 6104 from 6740 and we're left with 636.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 6360 by 872, we get 7 and a remainder of 256.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82808.377
Deduct 6104 from 6360 and we're left with 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 82808.377, with a leftover of 0.0256.
