Let's divide 324493 by 72
We want to divide 324493 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
72 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 32 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 32 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 324 / 72

On to step 3:
72 can be fit into 324 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 288 from 324 to get 36.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 364 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 can be fit into 364 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 45.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 360 from 364.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 49 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 450.0
If we take 0 away from 49, we end up with 49.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 493 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 493 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 61.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4506.0
Subtracting 432 from 493 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
72 goes into 610 8 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4506.8
Subtracting 576 from 610 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 52.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4506.84
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 288 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
520 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4506.847
If we take 504 away from 520, 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
72 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4506.8472
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4506.84722
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.

The final outcome is 4506.84722, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
