38415 divided by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 38415 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 38 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 384 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 384 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 360 away from 384, we end up with 24.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 241 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 241 3 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53.0
Deduct 216 from 241 and we're left with 25.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 255 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 255 3 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 533.0
If we take 216 away from 255, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
390 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 533.5
If we subtract 360 from 390, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
72 can be fit into 300 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 533.54
Subtract 288 from 300 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
120 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 533.541
Subtracting 72 from 120 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 533.5416
If we take 432 away from 480, we end up with 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 10:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 533.54166
If we take 432 away from 480, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 533.54166 with a remaining 4.8e-05.
