We divide 618240 by 72
Our goal is to divide 618240 by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 61 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 goes into 61 0 times with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 0 from 61.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 618 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
618 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 576 from 618, we get 42.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 422 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 goes into 422 5 times with a remainder of 62.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 85.0
Subtracting 360 from 422 leaves us with 62.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 624 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 goes into 624 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 858.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 576 from 624.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 480 / 72

Step 6:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8586.0
Subtract 432 from 480 to 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 7:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8586.6
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8586.66
If we take 432 away from 480, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8586.66 and a remainder of 0.048.
