We divide 72129922 by 971
We want to figure out the number of times 72129922 can be divided by 971.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 971 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 971

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 971 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 721 / 971

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 721 by 971, we get 0 with a remainder of 721.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 721 after subtracting 0 from 721.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 721, then repeat: 7212 / 971

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 7212 by 971, we get 7 with a remainder of 415.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 6797 away from 7212, we end up with 415.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 415 and continue: 4159 / 971

On to step 5:
The number 971 fits into 4159 4 times, leaving a remainder of 275.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74.0
Subtract 3884 from 4159 to get 275.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 275, then repeat: 2759 / 971

Step 6:
If we divide 2759 by 971, we get 2 and a remainder of 817.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 742.0
Subtract 1942 from 2759 to get 817.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 817, then repeat: 8172 / 971

Going ahead to step 7:
971 goes into 8172 8 times with a remainder of 404.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7428.0
If we take 7768 away from 8172, we end up with 404.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 404 and continue with: 4042 / 971

Moving on to step 8:
The number 971 fits into 4042 4 times, leaving a remainder of 158.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74284.0
Subtract 3884 from 4042 to get 158.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
1580 divided by 971 is 1 with a remainder of 609.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 74284.1
Deduct 971 from 1580 and we're left with 609.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6090, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 971 fits into 6090 6 times, leaving a remainder of 264.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74284.16
If we subtract 5826 from 6090, we get 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 2640 by 971, we get 2 with a remainder of 698.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74284.162
Subtracting 1942 from 2640 leaves us with 698.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6980, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
971 goes into 6980 7 times with a remainder of 183.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74284.1627
Subtract 6797 from 6980 to get 183.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1830, and continue the process.

Step 13:
971 can be fit into 1830 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 859.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74284.16271
Deduct 971 from 1830 and we're left with 859.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8590, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
971 goes into 8590 8 times with a remainder of 822.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74284.162718
If we subtract 7768 from 8590, we get 822.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
8220 divided by 971 is 8 with a remainder of 452.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74284.1627188
If we subtract 7768 from 8220, we get 452.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4520, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 74284.1627188 with a balance of 4.52e-06.
