72748 ÷ 56 
We want to divide 72748 by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
56 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 16.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 56 away from 72, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 167 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 167 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 112 from 167, we get 55.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 554 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 554 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 129.0
If we take 504 away from 554, we end up with 50.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 508 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
508 divided by 56 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1299.0
If we subtract 504 from 508, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1299.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1299.07
If we subtract 392 from 400, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1299.071
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1299.0714
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1299.07142
If we subtract 112 from 160, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1299.071428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
320 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1299.0714285
If we take 280 away from 320, 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1299.07142857
Deduct 392 from 400 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1299.07142857 and a remainder of 8e-09.
