914836 divided by 72 
We want to divide 914836 by 72.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 91 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 91 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 72 from 91, we get 19.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 194 / 72

Step 3:
The number 72 fits into 194 2 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 144 from 194.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 508 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 508 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 127.0
Subtract 504 from 508 to get 4.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 43 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 goes into 43 0 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1270.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 0 from 43.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 436 / 72

Step 6:
72 goes into 436 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12706.0
Subtracting 432 from 436 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
40 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12706.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
400 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12706.05
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 360 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12706.055
Deduct 360 from 400 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12706.055 and a remainder of 0.004.
