888709 ÷ 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 888709.

On to step 1:
72 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 goes into 88 1 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 88 leaves us with 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
168 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 144 from 168 leaves us with 24.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 247 / 72

On to step 4:
72 can be fit into 247 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 216 from 247.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 310 / 72

On to step 5:
If we divide 310 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1234.0
Subtract 288 from 310 to get 22.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 229 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 229 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12343.0
Subtract 216 from 229 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
130 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 58.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12343.1
Subtracting 72 from 130 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
580 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12343.18
Subtracting 576 from 580 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12343.18
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12343.1805
Deduct 360 from 400 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12343.18055
If we subtract 360 from 400, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12343.18055 and a remainder of 4e-05.
