We divide 72235 by 24
We want to figure out the number of times 72235 can be divided by 24.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 24 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 24

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 24 fits into 72 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 72 from 72, we get 0.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 2 / 24

Going ahead to step 3:
2 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 24

Advancing to step 4:
23 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 300.0
Subtract 0 from 23 to get 23.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 235 / 24

Advancing to step 5:
The number 24 fits into 235 9 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3009.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 216 from 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 6:
If we divide 190 by 24, we get 7 and a remainder of 22.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3009.7
If we take 168 away from 190, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 220 by 24, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3009.79
If we subtract 216 from 220, we 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.

Moving on to step 8:
24 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3009.791
If we take 24 away from 40, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 24 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3009.7916
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 24, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3009.79166
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3009.79166 with a remaining 1.6e-05.
