488333 divided by 72 
We want to divide 488333 by 72.

Moving on to 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
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 72

Step 2:
The number 72 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 488 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 488 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 432 from 488 and we're left with 56.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 56, then carry on: 563 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 563 7 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
Subtracting 504 from 563 leaves us with 59.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 593 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 goes into 593 8 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 678.0
If we take 576 away from 593, we end up with 17.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 173 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 173 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6782.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 144 from 173.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 7:
72 can be fit into 290 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6782.4
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 288 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
20 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6782.4
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6782.402
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 144 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 10:
560 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6782.4027
If we take 504 away from 560, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
72 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 56.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6782.40277
Deduct 504 from 560 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6782.40277, with a leftover of 5.6e-05.
