We look at the division of 41254 by 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 41254.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 41 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 41 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 41 and we're left with 41.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 412 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 412 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 360 from 412.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 52 and repeat the process: 525 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 can be fit into 525 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 504 from 525.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 214 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 214 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 70.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 572.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 144 from 214.
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 6:
When dividing 700 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 52.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 572.9
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 648 from 700.
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 7:
The number 72 fits into 520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 572.97
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 160 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 572.972
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 572.9722
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 result is 572.9722 with a remainder of 0.00016.
