We divide 123073 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 123073 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead 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
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 123 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 123 1 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 123, we end up with 51.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 51, then carry on: 510 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
510 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 504 away from 510, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 67 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 can be fit into 67 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 170.0
Subtract 0 from 67 to get 67.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 673 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
673 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 25.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1709.0
Subtract 648 from 673 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1709.3
Subtracting 216 from 250 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1709.34
If we take 288 away from 340, we end up 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.

Step 9:
520 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1709.347
Subtract 504 from 520 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1709.3472
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 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:
The number 72 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1709.34722
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 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 1709.34722 with a remainder of 1.6e-05.
