690665 ÷ 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 690665.

On to step 1:
72 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
72 can be fit into 69 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 69, we end up with 69.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 69, then carry on: 690 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 690 9 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 648 from 690 to get 42.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 426 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
426 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 95.0
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 360 from 426.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 66 and continue with: 666 / 72

Step 5:
666 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 959.0
Subtract 648 from 666 to get 18.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 185 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 185 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 41.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9592.0
Deduct 144 from 185 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 410 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9592.5
Subtract 360 from 410 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
72 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9592.56
If we subtract 432 from 500, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 680 9 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9592.569
Subtract 648 from 680 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9592.5694
If we take 288 away from 320, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
72 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9592.56944
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9592.56944 and a remainder of 3.2e-05.
