438706 ÷ 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 438706 can be divided by 72.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 43 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 43 leaves us with 43.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 438 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 goes into 438 6 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 432 from 438.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 67 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 67 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 67.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60.0
Subtract 0 from 67 to get 67.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 670 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 670 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 609.0
Deduct 648 from 670 and we're left with 22.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 226 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 can be fit into 226 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6093.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 216 from 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6093.1
Deduct 72 from 100 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
280 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6093.13
Subtract 216 from 280 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6093.138
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6093.1388
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6093.1388 with a balance of 0.00064.
