We look at the division of 72379508 by 972 
Let's see how many times 972 fits into 72379508.

Moving on to step 1:
972 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 972

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 972, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 723 / 972

Moving on to step 3:
972 goes into 723 0 times with a remainder of 723.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 723 and we're left with 723.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 723, then repeat: 7237 / 972

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 972 fits into 7237 7 times, leaving a remainder of 433.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 6804 away from 7237, we end up with 433.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 433, then carry on: 4339 / 972

Step 5:
4339 divided by 972 is 4 with a remainder of 451.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74.0
Subtracting 3888 from 4339 leaves us with 451.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 451, then carry on: 4515 / 972

On to step 6:
972 can be fit into 4515 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 627.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 744.0
If we take 3888 away from 4515, we end up with 627.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 627, then repeat: 6270 / 972

Step 7:
The number 972 fits into 6270 6 times, leaving a remainder of 438.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7446.0
If we subtract 5832 from 6270, we get 438.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 438, then carry on: 4388 / 972

On to step 8:
The number 972 fits into 4388 4 times, leaving a remainder of 500.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74464.0
Subtracting 3888 from 4388 leaves us with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 5000 by 972, we get 5 and a remainder of 140.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 74464.5
Subtracting 4860 from 5000 leaves us with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
1400 divided by 972 is 1 with a remainder of 428.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 74464.51
Subtract 972 from 1400 to get 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 4280 by 972, we get 4 with a remainder of 392.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74464.514
Subtract 3888 from 4280 to get 392.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
972 goes into 3920 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 74464.5144
Subtract 3888 from 3920 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 74464.5144 and a remainder of 0.00032.
