We look at the division of 281343 by 72 
We want to divide 281343 by 72.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 28 and we're left with 28.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 281 / 72

Step 3:
72 can be fit into 281 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 216 from 281 to get 65.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 65 and repeat the process: 653 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 653 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 648 from 653 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 54 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 54.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 390.0
Subtracting 0 from 54 leaves us with 54.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 543 / 72

On to step 6:
543 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 39.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3907.0
If we subtract 504 from 543, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 390 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3907.5
Subtracting 360 from 390 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
72 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3907.54
If we take 288 away from 300, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
72 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3907.541
Subtract 72 from 120 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3907.5416
If we take 432 away from 480, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3907.54166
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3907.54166 with a balance of 4.8e-05.
