727899 divided by 72 
Our goal is to divide 727899 by 72.

Step 1:
The number 72 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 72 from 72, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 7 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 78 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
72 can be fit into 78 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 101.0
Subtracting 72 from 78 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
72 can be fit into 69 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1010.0
If we subtract 0 from 69, we get 69.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 69, then carry on: 699 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 goes into 699 9 times with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10109.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 648 from 699.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
72 goes into 510 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10109.7
Deduct 504 from 510 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10109.7
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
72 can be fit into 600 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10109.708
Subtracting 576 from 600 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 240 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10109.7083
Deduct 216 from 240 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10109.70833
Subtracting 216 from 240 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10109.70833 with a balance of 2.4e-05.
