We're dividing 72679 by 97 
We're looking to find how many times 97 goes into 72679.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 97

Step 2:
When dividing 72 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 726 / 97

Step 3:
97 goes into 726 7 times with a remainder of 47.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 679 from 726.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 477 / 97

Step 4:
97 can be fit into 477 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 89.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74.0
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 388 from 477.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 89, then repeat: 899 / 97

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 97 fits into 899 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 749.0
Subtract 873 from 899 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 260 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 66.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 749.2
Subtract 194 from 260 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
97 goes into 660 6 times with a remainder of 78.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 749.26
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 582 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
780 divided by 97 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 749.268
Subtract 776 from 780 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
97 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 749.268
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 400 by 97, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 749.26804
Subtracting 388 from 400 leaves us 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 120 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 749.268041
If we take 97 away from 120, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 230 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 749.2680412
If we take 194 away from 230, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 360 by 97, we get 3 and a remainder of 69.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 749.26804123
Subtracting 291 from 360 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 749.26804123, with a leftover of 6.9e-08.
