We divide 286167 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 286167.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
72 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 286 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
286 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 70.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 216 from 286, we get 70.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 70, then carry on: 701 / 72

On to step 4:
When dividing 701 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 53.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 648 from 701 leaves us with 53.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 536 / 72

On to step 5:
72 goes into 536 7 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 397.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 504 from 536.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 327 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
327 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3974.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 288 from 327.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 390 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3974.5
If we take 360 away from 390, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3974.54
If we take 288 away from 300, we end up 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 9:
72 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3974.541
If we subtract 72 from 120, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 10:
72 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3974.5416
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3974.54166
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3974.54166 and a remainder of 4.8e-05.
