We divide 247020 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 247020 can be divided by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 72

On to step 2:
24 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 247 / 72

On to step 3:
247 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 31.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 216 from 247 and we're left with 31.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 310 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 310 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we take 288 away from 310, we end up with 22.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 222 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 can be fit into 222 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 343.0
If we subtract 216 from 222, we get 6.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 60 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 60 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3430.0
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3430.8
If we take 576 away from 600, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3430.83
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 216 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
240 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3430.833
If we take 216 away from 240, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3430.833 with a remaining 0.0024.
