We're dividing 100508 by 72 
We want to divide 100508 by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 10 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 10 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 100 / 72

Step 3:
If we divide 100 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 72 from 100, we get 28.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 285 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 285 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 216 from 285 leaves us with 69.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 69 and continue with: 690 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 690 9 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 139.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 648 from 690.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 428 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
428 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 68.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1395.0
Deduct 360 from 428 and we're left 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.

Step 7:
72 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1395.9
Deduct 648 from 680 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.

Let's proceed to 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: 1395.94
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.

On to step 9:
72 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1395.944
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.

After the division, we end up with 1395.944 and a remainder of 0.0032.
