Let's divide 724959 by 72
The aim is to understand the frequency of 72 in 724959.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 72

On to step 2:
72 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 72 from 72, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 4 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
49 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 495 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 495 6 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1006.0
Deduct 432 from 495 and we're left with 63.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 639 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 639 8 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10068.0
If we subtract 576 from 639, we get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 72 fits into 630 8 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10068.8
Subtract 576 from 630 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
540 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10068.87
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 504 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10068.875
Deduct 360 from 360 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
72 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10068.875
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10068.875
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10068.875 with a balance of 0.0.
