Let's see how many times 761 fits into 72979577.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 761 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 761

Going ahead to step 2:
761 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 72 leaves us with 72.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 729 / 761

On to step 3:
The number 761 fits into 729 0 times, leaving a remainder of 729.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 729 and we're left with 729.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 729, then repeat: 7297 / 761

Advancing to step 4:
761 goes into 7297 9 times with a remainder of 448.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 6849 from 7297 to get 448.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 448 and continue: 4489 / 761

Going ahead to step 5:
761 can be fit into 4489 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 684.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 95.0
If we subtract 3805 from 4489, we get 684.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 684 and repeat the process: 6845 / 761

On to step 6:
6845 divided by 761 is 8 with a remainder of 757.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 958.0
If we subtract 6088 from 6845, we get 757.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 757 and continue with: 7577 / 761

On to step 7:
When dividing 7577 by 761, we get 9 with a remainder of 728.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9589.0
Subtracting 6849 from 7577 leaves us with 728.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 728 and continue with: 7287 / 761

Moving on to step 8:
7287 divided by 761 is 9 with a remainder of 438.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 95899.0
Deduct 6849 from 7287 and we're left with 438.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 761 fits into 4380 5 times, leaving a remainder of 575.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 95899.5
Subtracting 3805 from 4380 leaves us with 575.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5750, and continue the process.

Step 10:
761 goes into 5750 7 times with a remainder of 423.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 95899.57
Subtract 5327 from 5750 to get 423.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4230, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
761 goes into 4230 5 times with a remainder of 425.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 95899.575
Deduct 3805 from 4230 and we're left with 425.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4250, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 4250 by 761, we get 5 and a remainder of 445.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 95899.5755
Deduct 3805 from 4250 and we're left with 445.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4450, and continue the process.

The final result is 95899.5755 with a remainder of 0.00445.
