Let's divide 596296 by 72
We want to divide 596296 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 72

On to step 2:
If we divide 59 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 59.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 59 to get 59.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 59 and continue with: 596 / 72

On to step 3:
72 can be fit into 596 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 576 from 596 to get 20.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 202 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 202 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 58.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 82.0
If we take 144 away from 202, we end up with 58.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 589 / 72

On to step 5:
72 can be fit into 589 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 828.0
Deduct 576 from 589 and we're left with 13.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 136 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 can be fit into 136 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8281.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 72 from 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8281.8
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 576 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8281.88
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8281.88 with a balance of 0.064.
