Let's divide 37391879 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 37391879 can be divided by 72.

Step 1:
72 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 37 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 37 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 37.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 373 / 72

On to step 3:
373 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 13.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 360 away from 373, we end up with 13.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 139 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 139 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 67.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we subtract 72 from 139, we get 67.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 67 and continue: 671 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 goes into 671 9 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 519.0
Subtract 648 from 671 to get 23.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 238 / 72

Step 6:
The number 72 fits into 238 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5193.0
If we take 216 away from 238, we end up with 22.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 72

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 227 3 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51933.0
If we subtract 216 from 227, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 119 / 72

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 119 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 47.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 519331.0
Subtracting 72 from 119 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 470 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 519331.6
If we subtract 432 from 470, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 380 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 519331.65
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 360 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
72 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 56.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 519331.652
If we subtract 144 from 200, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
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: 519331.6527
Subtract 504 from 560 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
72 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 56.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 519331.65277
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.

Our division results in 519331.65277 with a remaining 5.6e-05.
