We divide 72867 by 84
Let's see how many times 84 fits into 72867.

Moving on to step 1:
84 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 84

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 728 / 84

Step 3:
84 can be fit into 728 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 672 from 728.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 566 / 84

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 566 by 84, we get 6 and a remainder of 62.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 86.0
Subtract 504 from 566 to get 62.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 627 / 84

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 84 fits into 627 7 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 867.0
If we subtract 588 from 627, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 390 by 84, we get 4 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 867.4
Deduct 336 from 390 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 540 by 84, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 867.46
Subtracting 504 from 540 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
84 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 867.464
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
240 divided by 84 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 867.4642
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 168 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
720 divided by 84 is 8 with a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 867.46428
Subtracting 672 from 720 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 480 by 84, we get 5 and a remainder of 60.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 867.464285
Subtracting 420 from 480 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 84 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 867.4642857
Subtracting 588 from 600 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
84 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 867.46428571
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 867.46428571 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
