We look at the division of 612850 by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 612850 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 61 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 61 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 61.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 61, we end up with 61.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 612 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 goes into 612 8 times with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 576 from 612 leaves us with 36.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 368 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 8.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 85.0
Subtract 360 from 368 to get 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 85 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 851.0
If we take 72 away from 85, we end up with 13.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 130 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
130 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8511.0
If we take 72 away from 130, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 580 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8511.8
If we take 576 away from 580, we end up 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 8:
The number 72 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8511.8
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8511.805
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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 400 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8511.8055
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 8511.8055 with a balance of 0.0004.
