We divide 205512 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 205512 can be divided by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
72 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 205 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 205 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 144 from 205 and we're left with 61.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 615 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 615 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 39.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 576 away from 615, we end up with 39.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 391 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 391 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 31.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 285.0
Subtract 360 from 391 to get 31.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 312 / 72

On to step 6:
72 goes into 312 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2854.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 288 from 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2854.3
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 216 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
72 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2854.33
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 216 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2854.33 with a remaining 0.024.
