We divide 71745775 by 552
We want to divide 71745775 by 552.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 552 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 552

Step 2:
When dividing 71 by 552, we get 0 with a remainder of 71.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 0 from 71.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 717 / 552

Moving on to step 3:
The number 552 fits into 717 1 times, leaving a remainder of 165.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 552 from 717 and we're left with 165.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 165 and continue: 1654 / 552

Moving on to step 4:
552 goes into 1654 2 times with a remainder of 550.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 1104 away from 1654, we end up with 550.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 550, then carry on: 5505 / 552

Step 5:
5505 divided by 552 is 9 with a remainder of 537.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 129.0
If we subtract 4968 from 5505, we get 537.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 537 and continue with: 5377 / 552

On to step 6:
The number 552 fits into 5377 9 times, leaving a remainder of 409.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1299.0
The remainder is 409 after subtracting 4968 from 5377.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 409 and repeat the process: 4097 / 552

On to step 7:
When dividing 4097 by 552, we get 7 with a remainder of 233.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12997.0
If we take 3864 away from 4097, we end up with 233.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 233 and repeat the process: 2335 / 552

Step 8:
The number 552 fits into 2335 4 times, leaving a remainder of 127.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 129974.0
If we take 2208 away from 2335, we end up with 127.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 552 fits into 1270 2 times, leaving a remainder of 166.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 129974.2
Deduct 1104 from 1270 and we're left with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 1660 by 552, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 129974.23
If we subtract 1656 from 1660, 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.

On to step 11:
40 divided by 552 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 129974.23
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 552, we get 0 with a remainder of 400.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 129974.23
If we take 0 away from 400, we end up with 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4000, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 129974.23, and the remainder is 0.004.
