We look at the division of 540169 by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 540169 can be divided by 72.

On to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 54 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 54.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 540 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 540 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 504 from 540.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 361 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
361 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 75.0
If we subtract 360 from 361, we get 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 750.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 169 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 169 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7502.0
Subtracting 144 from 169 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
250 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7502.3
Deduct 216 from 250 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7502.34
Subtract 288 from 340 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
72 goes into 520 7 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7502.347
Subtracting 504 from 520 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 10:
If we divide 160 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7502.3472
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 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 11:
72 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7502.34722
If we take 144 away from 160, 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.

The final outcome is 7502.34722, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
