We divide 773983 by 72
Our goal is to divide 773983 by 72.

Step 1:
72 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
77 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 72 from 77, we get 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 72

Step 3:
If we divide 53 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 53.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 0 from 53.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 539 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
539 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 35.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 107.0
Deduct 504 from 539 and we're left with 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
358 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 70.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1074.0
Subtracting 288 from 358 leaves us with 70.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 703 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 703 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 55.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10749.0
If we subtract 648 from 703, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
550 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 46.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10749.7
Deduct 504 from 550 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
460 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10749.76
Deduct 432 from 460 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 9:
72 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10749.763
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 216 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 10:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10749.7638
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 576 from 640.
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 11:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10749.76388
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 10749.76388 with a balance of 6.4e-05.
