157055 ÷ 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 157055.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 157 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 goes into 157 2 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 144 from 157 and we're left with 13.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 130 / 72

Step 4:
72 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we take 72 away from 130, we end up with 58.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 585 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 585 8 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 218.0
If we take 576 away from 585, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 95 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 95 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2181.0
Deduct 72 from 95 and we're left 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 7:
When dividing 230 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2181.3
If we subtract 216 from 230, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2181.31
If we subtract 72 from 140, 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.

On to step 9:
680 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 32.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2181.319
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 648 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2181.3194
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us 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:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2181.31944
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.

The quotient of the division is 2181.31944, and the remainder is 3.2e-05.
