We look at the division of 71723880 by 479 
Let's see how many times 479 fits into 71723880.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 479 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 479

On to step 2:
479 can be fit into 71 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 0 from 71.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 717 / 479

Advancing to step 3:
479 can be fit into 717 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 238.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 479 from 717 leaves us with 238.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 238, then repeat: 2382 / 479

Let's proceed to step 4:
479 can be fit into 2382 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 466.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 1916 from 2382 and we're left with 466.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 466 and continue with: 4663 / 479

Step 5:
4663 divided by 479 is 9 with a remainder of 352.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 149.0
The remainder is 352 after subtracting 4311 from 4663.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 352, then repeat: 3528 / 479

On to step 6:
479 can be fit into 3528 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 175.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1497.0
Subtract 3353 from 3528 to get 175.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 175 and repeat the process: 1758 / 479

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 1758 by 479, we get 3 and a remainder of 321.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 14973.0
If we subtract 1437 from 1758, we get 321.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 321 and continue: 3210 / 479

On to step 8:
3210 divided by 479 is 6 with a remainder of 336.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149736.0
If we take 2874 away from 3210, we end up with 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 479 fits into 3360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149736.7
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 3353 from 3360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 479 fits into 70 0 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149736.7
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 700 by 479, we get 1 with a remainder of 221.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149736.701
Deduct 479 from 700 and we're left with 221.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
2210 divided by 479 is 4 with a remainder of 294.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149736.7014
Subtracting 1916 from 2210 leaves us with 294.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 2940 by 479, we get 6 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149736.70146
Deduct 2874 from 2940 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
660 divided by 479 is 1 with a remainder of 181.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149736.701461
Subtracting 479 from 660 leaves us with 181.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1810, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
When dividing 1810 by 479, we get 3 with a remainder of 373.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149736.7014613
If we subtract 1437 from 1810, we get 373.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
479 goes into 3730 7 times with a remainder of 377.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 149736.70146137
Subtract 3353 from 3730 to get 377.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3770, and continue the process.

Our division results in 149736.70146137 with a remaining 3.77e-07.
