We look at the division of 397603 by 72 
We want to divide 397603 by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 39 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 39, we get 39.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 397 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
397 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 360 from 397.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 376 / 72

On to step 4:
When dividing 376 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 360 away from 376, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 160 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 160 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 552.0
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 163 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 can be fit into 163 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5522.0
Deduct 144 from 163 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 190 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5522.2
If we take 144 away from 190, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 460 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5522.26
If we subtract 432 from 460, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
280 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 64.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5522.263
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 216 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
72 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5522.2638
If we subtract 576 from 640, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
72 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5522.26388
If we subtract 576 from 640, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5522.26388 with a remaining 6.4e-05.
