We're dividing 72200454 by 989 
We want to divide 72200454 by 989.

Let's proceed to step 1:
989 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 989

On to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 989, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 722 / 989

Step 3:
The number 989 fits into 722 0 times, leaving a remainder of 722.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 722, we end up with 722.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 722, then carry on: 7220 / 989

Moving on to step 4:
The number 989 fits into 7220 7 times, leaving a remainder of 297.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 6923 from 7220, we get 297.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 297, then carry on: 2970 / 989

Step 5:
If we divide 2970 by 989, we get 3 and a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73.0
If we take 2967 away from 2970, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 989

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 34 by 989, we get 0 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 730.0
Subtract 0 from 34 to get 34.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 345 / 989

Advancing to step 7:
989 goes into 345 0 times with a remainder of 345.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7300.0
If we subtract 0 from 345, we get 345.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 345, then carry on: 3454 / 989

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 3454 by 989, we get 3 and a remainder of 487.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 73003.0
If we subtract 2967 from 3454, we get 487.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4870, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 4870 by 989, we get 4 and a remainder of 914.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73003.4
Subtracting 3956 from 4870 leaves us with 914.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 989 fits into 9140 9 times, leaving a remainder of 239.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73003.49
If we take 8901 away from 9140, we end up with 239.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2390, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
2390 divided by 989 is 2 with a remainder of 412.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 73003.492
The remainder is 412 after subtracting 1978 from 2390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 4120 by 989, we get 4 and a remainder of 164.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73003.4924
The remainder is 164 after subtracting 3956 from 4120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
989 can be fit into 1640 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 651.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73003.49241
Subtract 989 from 1640 to get 651.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6510, and continue the process.

Step 14:
989 goes into 6510 6 times with a remainder of 576.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73003.492416
If we take 5934 away from 6510, we end up with 576.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5760, and continue the process.

Step 15:
5760 divided by 989 is 5 with a remainder of 815.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73003.4924165
Deduct 4945 from 5760 and we're left with 815.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 8150 by 989, we get 8 and a remainder of 238.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73003.49241658
If we take 7912 away from 8150, we end up with 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Our division results in 73003.49241658 with a remaining 2.38e-07.
