We're dividing 404096 by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 404096 can be divided by 72.

Step 1:
The number 72 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 40 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 404 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 404 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 360 from 404 and we're left with 44.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 440 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 440 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56.0
Deduct 432 from 440 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 89 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 89 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 561.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 72 from 89.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 176 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 can be fit into 176 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5612.0
Subtract 144 from 176 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 320 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5612.4
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.

Step 8:
72 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5612.44
Subtract 288 from 320 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.

The final result is 5612.44 with a remainder of 0.032.
