123667 ÷ 72 
Our goal is to divide 123667 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
12 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 123 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 123 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 51.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 72 from 123.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 516 / 72

On to step 4:
72 can be fit into 516 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 504 away from 516, we end up with 12.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 126 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 126 1 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 171.0
Subtract 72 from 126 to get 54.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 547 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 547 7 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1717.0
Subtracting 504 from 547 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 430 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1717.5
Subtracting 360 from 430 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1717.59
Subtracting 648 from 700 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 520 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 16.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1717.597
Deduct 504 from 520 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 10:
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: 1717.5972
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.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1717.59722
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.

The final result is 1717.59722 with a remainder of 1.6e-05.
