We look at the division of 472442 by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 472442 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 47 0 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 472 / 72

Step 3:
When dividing 472 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 432 from 472, we get 40.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 404 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 can be fit into 404 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 65.0
Subtracting 360 from 404 leaves us with 44.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 444 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 444 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 656.0
Subtract 432 from 444 to get 12.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 122 / 72

Step 6:
72 goes into 122 1 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6561.0
If we take 72 away from 122, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 7:
500 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6561.6
Subtracting 432 from 500 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 680 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6561.69
If we subtract 648 from 680, we 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6561.694
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 320 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6561.6944
If we take 288 away from 320, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 6561.6944 and a remainder of 0.00032.
