Let's divide 418739 by 72
Our goal is to divide 418739 by 72.

On to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
41 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 41, we get 41.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 418 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 418 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 360 from 418.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 587 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 goes into 587 8 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we subtract 576 from 587, we get 11.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 113 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
72 can be fit into 113 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 581.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 72 from 113.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 419 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 419 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 59.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5815.0
If we take 360 away from 419, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Step 7:
72 goes into 590 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5815.8
Deduct 576 from 590 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
72 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5815.81
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 72 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 680 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 32.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5815.819
If we subtract 648 from 680, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
72 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5815.8194
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5815.81944
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5815.81944 with a remaining 3.2e-05.
