18469 divided by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 18469 can be divided by 72.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 72

On to step 2:
18 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 184 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 184 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 144 from 184 to get 40.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 406 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 406 5 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we take 360 away from 406, we end up with 46.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 469 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 can be fit into 469 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 256.0
Subtracting 432 from 469 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 370 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 256.5
If we take 360 away from 370, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
72 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 256.51
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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 64.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 256.513
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 216 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 256.5138
If we subtract 576 from 640, we 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.

Step 10:
72 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 256.51388
Subtracting 576 from 640 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 256.51388, and the remainder is 6.4e-05.
