We're dividing 72959112 by 228 
We want to divide 72959112 by 228.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 228, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 228

On to step 2:
228 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 72 leaves us with 72.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 729 / 228

On to step 3:
228 can be fit into 729 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 684 from 729 to get 45.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 455 / 228

Step 4:
The number 228 fits into 455 1 times, leaving a remainder of 227.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 228 from 455, we get 227.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 227 and continue with: 2279 / 228

Moving on to step 5:
228 can be fit into 2279 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 227.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 319.0
Deduct 2052 from 2279 and we're left with 227.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 227, then repeat: 2271 / 228

Moving on to step 6:
228 can be fit into 2271 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 219.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3199.0
Subtracting 2052 from 2271 leaves us with 219.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 219, then carry on: 2191 / 228

Let's proceed to step 7:
228 goes into 2191 9 times with a remainder of 139.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31999.0
If we take 2052 away from 2191, we end up with 139.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 139, then carry on: 1392 / 228

Going ahead to step 8:
1392 divided by 228 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319996.0
Subtract 1368 from 1392 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 228 fits into 240 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319996.1
Deduct 228 from 240 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 228 fits into 120 0 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 319996.1
If we take 0 away from 120, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
228 goes into 1200 5 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319996.105
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 1140 from 1200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 600 by 228, we get 2 with a remainder of 144.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 319996.1052
The remainder is 144 after subtracting 456 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 228 fits into 1440 6 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319996.10526
If we take 1368 away from 1440, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 720 by 228, we get 3 with a remainder of 36.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319996.105263
If we take 684 away from 720, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 228 fits into 360 1 times, leaving a remainder of 132.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319996.1052631
Subtract 228 from 360 to get 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
228 goes into 1320 5 times with a remainder of 180.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319996.10526315
Subtract 1140 from 1320 to get 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 319996.10526315 with a balance of 1.8e-07.
