Let's divide 747921 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 747921.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 74, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
279 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 63.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 103.0
If we take 216 away from 279, we end up with 63.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 63 and continue with: 632 / 72

On to step 5:
72 can be fit into 632 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1038.0
Subtract 576 from 632 to get 56.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 56 and continue: 561 / 72

Step 6:
The number 72 fits into 561 7 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10387.0
Subtract 504 from 561 to get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 570 7 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10387.7
If we take 504 away from 570, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 660 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10387.79
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 648 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
72 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10387.791
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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10387.7916
If we subtract 432 from 480, 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.

On 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: 10387.79166
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 10387.79166 with a balance of 4.8e-05.
