We divide 636447 by 72
We want to divide 636447 by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 72

Step 2:
The number 72 fits into 63 0 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 63 and we're left with 63.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 636 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
636 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 60.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 576 from 636, we get 60.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 60, then repeat: 604 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
604 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
If we subtract 576 from 604, we get 28.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 284 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 can be fit into 284 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 883.0
If we subtract 216 from 284, we get 68.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 687 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 can be fit into 687 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8839.0
If we take 648 away from 687, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
390 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8839.5
Deduct 360 from 390 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8839.54
If we subtract 288 from 300, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8839.541
If we subtract 72 from 120, 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 10:
480 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8839.5416
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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8839.54166
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 8839.54166 and a remainder of 4.8e-05.
