We look at the division of 724044 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 724044.

Let's proceed to step 1:
72 goes into 7 0 times 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.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 72

On to step 2:
72 can be fit into 72 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 72 from 72, we get 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 72

Step 4:
72 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 404 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 404 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 44.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1005.0
Subtract 360 from 404 to get 44.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 444 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 444 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10056.0
Deduct 432 from 444 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 120 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10056.1
If we subtract 72 from 120, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10056.16
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
72 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10056.166
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 10056.166 with a remainder of 0.0048.
