We're dividing 717496 by 45 
Our goal is to divide 717496 by 45.

Going ahead to step 1:
7 divided by 45 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 45

Step 2:
45 can be fit into 71 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 45 from 71 and we're left with 26.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 267 / 45

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 267 by 45, we get 5 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 225 from 267 leaves us with 42.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 424 / 45

Going ahead to step 4:
45 can be fit into 424 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 159.0
Subtract 405 from 424 to get 19.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 199 / 45

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 199 by 45, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1594.0
Subtract 180 from 199 to get 19.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 196 / 45

Going ahead to step 6:
196 divided by 45 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15944.0
Deduct 180 from 196 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 45 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15944.3
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 135 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 45 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15944.35
Deduct 225 from 250 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
45 goes into 250 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15944.355
Deduct 225 from 250 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 15944.355, and the remainder is 0.0025.
