Let's divide 177664 by 72
We want to divide 177664 by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
72 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 177 / 72

Step 3:
177 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 144 from 177 leaves us with 33.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 336 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 336 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 288 from 336.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 486 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
486 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 246.0
Subtracting 432 from 486 leaves us with 54.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 544 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
544 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2467.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 504 from 544.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2467.5
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 360 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2467.55
If we subtract 360 from 400, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final result is 2467.55 with a remainder of 0.04.
