48473277 ÷ 72 
Our goal is to divide 48473277 by 72.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 484 / 72

Step 3:
72 goes into 484 6 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 432 from 484, we get 52.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 527 / 72

Step 4:
527 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
Subtract 504 from 527 to get 23.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 233 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 can be fit into 233 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 673.0
If we take 216 away from 233, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 172 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 172 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6732.0
If we take 144 away from 172, we end up with 28.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 287 / 72

Moving on to step 7:
72 can be fit into 287 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 67323.0
Subtracting 216 from 287 leaves us with 71.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 717 / 72

On to step 8:
72 can be fit into 717 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 673239.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 648 from 717.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
72 can be fit into 690 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 673239.9
Deduct 648 from 690 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 673239.95
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 360 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 673239.958
Deduct 576 from 600 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
72 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 673239.9583
If we subtract 216 from 240, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 72 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 673239.95833
Deduct 216 from 240 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 673239.95833, and the remainder is 2.4e-05.
