Let's divide 558838 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 558838 can be divided by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 72

Step 2:
72 can be fit into 55 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 558 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
558 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 504 from 558 and we're left with 54.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 548 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
548 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77.0
Deduct 504 from 548 and we're left with 44.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 443 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 443 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 776.0
If we take 432 away from 443, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 72

Step 6:
118 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7761.0
Subtract 72 from 118 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
72 goes into 460 6 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7761.6
If we take 432 away from 460, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7761.63
Subtract 216 from 280 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7761.638
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7761.6388
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 7761.6388, and the remainder is 0.00064.
