738873 divided by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 738873 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 73 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
73 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 72 from 73 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 72

On to step 3:
If we divide 18 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
188 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 102.0
If we take 144 away from 188, we end up with 44.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 447 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 447 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1026.0
If we subtract 432 from 447, we get 15.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 153 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 goes into 153 2 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10262.0
If we subtract 144 from 153, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
72 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10262.1
Subtract 72 from 90 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10262.12
Subtract 144 from 180 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10262.125
If we subtract 360 from 360, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10262.125
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10262.125
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 10262.125 with a remainder of 0.0.
