We're dividing 72846739 by 581 
Let's see how many times 581 fits into 72846739.

Let's proceed to step 1:
581 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 581

Step 2:
581 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 728 / 581

Going ahead to step 3:
581 can be fit into 728 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 147.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 581 from 728 leaves us with 147.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 147 and continue: 1474 / 581

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 1474 by 581, we get 2 and a remainder of 312.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 1162 from 1474 and we're left with 312.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 312 and repeat the process: 3126 / 581

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 3126 by 581, we get 5 with a remainder of 221.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 125.0
Deduct 2905 from 3126 and we're left with 221.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 221, then repeat: 2217 / 581

Moving on to step 6:
2217 divided by 581 is 3 with a remainder of 474.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1253.0
The remainder is 474 after subtracting 1743 from 2217.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 474 and repeat the process: 4743 / 581

Moving on to step 7:
581 goes into 4743 8 times with a remainder of 95.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12538.0
Subtracting 4648 from 4743 leaves us with 95.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 95 and repeat the process: 959 / 581

On to step 8:
959 divided by 581 is 1 with a remainder of 378.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125381.0
Subtracting 581 from 959 leaves us with 378.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3780, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 3780 by 581, we get 6 and a remainder of 294.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 125381.6
Subtract 3486 from 3780 to get 294.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
581 goes into 2940 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125381.65
If we take 2905 away from 2940, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
581 goes into 350 0 times with a remainder of 350.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 125381.65
If we subtract 0 from 350, we get 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 581 fits into 3500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 125381.6506
If we subtract 3486 from 3500, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 140 by 581, we get 0 with a remainder of 140.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 125381.6506
If we take 0 away from 140, we end up with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 1400 by 581, we get 2 and a remainder of 238.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 125381.650602
Subtract 1162 from 1400 to get 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 2380 by 581, we get 4 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125381.6506024
If we subtract 2324 from 2380, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
560 divided by 581 is 0 with a remainder of 560.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125381.6506024
Subtracting 0 from 560 leaves us with 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5600, and continue the process.

Our division results in 125381.6506024 with a remaining 5.6e-07.
