724841 divided by 2 
We want to divide 724841 by 2.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 2, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 6 from 7 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 12 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 12 away from 12, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 2

Moving on to step 3:
4 divided by 2 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 362.0
Deduct 4 from 4 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 2

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 8 by 2, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3624.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 2

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 4 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36242.0
If we subtract 4 from 4, we get 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 2

Let's proceed to step 6:
2 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 362420.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 2, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 362420.5
If we take 10 away from 10, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 362420.5
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 362420.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 362420.5 with a balance of 0.0.
