729988 ÷ 44 
Our goal is to divide 729988 by 44.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 44

Moving on to step 2:
The number 44 fits into 72 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 44 from 72 to get 28.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 289 / 44

Step 3:
If we divide 289 by 44, we get 6 and a remainder of 25.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 264 from 289 to get 25.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 259 / 44

Advancing to step 4:
The number 44 fits into 259 5 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 165.0
If we subtract 220 from 259, we get 39.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 398 / 44

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 44 fits into 398 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1659.0
Subtract 396 from 398 to get 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 44

Moving on to step 6:
44 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16590.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 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 7:
If we divide 280 by 44, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16590.6
Deduct 264 from 280 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 160 by 44, we get 3 and a remainder of 28.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16590.63
Subtract 132 from 160 to get 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:
44 goes into 280 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16590.636
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 10:
160 divided by 44 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16590.6363
If we take 132 away from 160, we end up 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 11:
44 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16590.63636
If we subtract 264 from 280, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 44 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16590.636363
Subtract 132 from 160 to get 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 13:
280 divided by 44 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16590.6363636
If we take 264 away from 280, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
44 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16590.63636363
Subtracting 132 from 160 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 16590.63636363 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
