We look at the division of 72358109 by 254 
We want to divide 72358109 by 254.

Let's proceed to step 1:
254 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 254

Step 2:
When dividing 72 by 254, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 72 leaves us with 72.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 723 / 254

Step 3:
The number 254 fits into 723 2 times, leaving a remainder of 215.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 508 from 723 and we're left with 215.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 215 and continue with: 2155 / 254

Moving on to step 4:
254 goes into 2155 8 times with a remainder of 123.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 2032 away from 2155, we end up with 123.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 123, then carry on: 1238 / 254

Step 5:
1238 divided by 254 is 4 with a remainder of 222.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 284.0
Deduct 1016 from 1238 and we're left with 222.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 222, then carry on: 2221 / 254

Moving on to step 6:
254 goes into 2221 8 times with a remainder of 189.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2848.0
Subtracting 2032 from 2221 leaves us with 189.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 189, then repeat: 1890 / 254

Advancing to step 7:
254 goes into 1890 7 times with a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 28487.0
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 1778 from 1890.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 112 and repeat the process: 1129 / 254

On to step 8:
If we divide 1129 by 254, we get 4 and a remainder of 113.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 284874.0
If we subtract 1016 from 1129, we get 113.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 1130 by 254, we get 4 and a remainder of 114.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 284874.4
The remainder is 114 after subtracting 1016 from 1130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
254 can be fit into 1140 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 124.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 284874.44
If we take 1016 away from 1140, we end up with 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 284874.44 with a remaining 0.124.
