179056 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 179056 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
72 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
72 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 179 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 179 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 144 from 179 leaves us with 35.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 350 / 72

On to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 288 away from 350, we end up with 62.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 62, then carry on: 625 / 72

Step 5:
When dividing 625 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 248.0
If we subtract 576 from 625, we get 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 496 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2486.0
Subtracting 432 from 496 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2486.8
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
72 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2486.88
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.

The final result is 2486.88 with a remainder of 0.064.
