We divide 51854753 by 72
We want to divide 51854753 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
72 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 51 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 51 0 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 0 from 51.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 518 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 518 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 504 from 518 leaves us with 14.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 145 / 72

Step 4:
If we divide 145 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 72.0
Subtracting 144 from 145 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
72 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 720.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 147 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7202.0
Subtract 144 from 147 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 72

Advancing to step 7:
72 can be fit into 35 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 72020.0
If we subtract 0 from 35, we get 35.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 353 / 72

Step 8:
The number 72 fits into 353 4 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 720204.0
If we subtract 288 from 353, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 72 fits into 650 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 720204.9
If we subtract 648 from 650, we 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.

Step 10:
The number 72 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 720204.9
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
72 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 720204.902
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 12:
When dividing 560 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 720204.9027
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
72 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 720204.90277
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 final result is 720204.90277 with a remainder of 5.6e-05.
