637955 ÷ 72 
Our goal is to divide 637955 by 72.

On to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 63 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
72 goes into 63 0 times with a remainder of 63.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 63 to get 63.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 637 / 72

On to step 3:
72 can be fit into 637 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 576 from 637 leaves us with 61.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 61, then repeat: 619 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 619 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 43.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 88.0
If we subtract 576 from 619, we get 43.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 435 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 435 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 886.0
Subtracting 432 from 435 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 35 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 35 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8860.0
Subtract 0 from 35 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 350 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8860.4
If we take 288 away from 350, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
620 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8860.48
Deduct 576 from 620 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 440 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8860.486
If we subtract 432 from 440, 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 10:
When dividing 80 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8860.4861
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 11:
80 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8860.48611
If we subtract 72 from 80, 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.

The final result is 8860.48611 with a remainder of 8e-06.
