72837 ÷ 49 
We want to figure out the number of times 72837 can be divided by 49.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 49

Step 2:
72 divided by 49 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 49 from 72, we get 23.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 238 / 49

Moving on to step 3:
49 goes into 238 4 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 196 from 238 to get 42.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 423 / 49

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 423 by 49, we get 8 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148.0
Subtract 392 from 423 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 317 / 49

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 317 by 49, we get 6 with a remainder of 23.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1486.0
If we subtract 294 from 317, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
49 can be fit into 230 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1486.4
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 196 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 49 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1486.46
If we subtract 294 from 340, we 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.

On to step 8:
460 divided by 49 is 9 with a remainder of 19.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1486.469
If we subtract 441 from 460, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 190 by 49, we get 3 and a remainder of 43.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1486.4693
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 147 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 430 by 49, we get 8 and a remainder of 38.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1486.46938
Subtract 392 from 430 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 49 fits into 380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1486.469387
Subtract 343 from 380 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 370 by 49, we get 7 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1486.4693877
If we take 343 away from 370, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1486.4693877, with a leftover of 2.7e-07.
