We divide 982946 by 72
Our goal is to divide 982946 by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 72

Step 2:
98 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 72 from 98 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 262 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 262 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 216 away from 262, we end up with 46.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 469 / 72

Step 4:
If we divide 469 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 37.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 136.0
Subtracting 432 from 469 leaves us with 37.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 374 / 72

On to step 5:
72 can be fit into 374 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1365.0
If we take 360 away from 374, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 146 / 72

On to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 146 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13652.0
Subtract 144 from 146 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13652.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13652.02
If we take 144 away from 200, 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 560 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13652.027
Subtracting 504 from 560 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
560 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13652.0277
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 quotient of the division is 13652.0277, and the remainder is 0.00056.
