Let's divide 24339 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 24339 can be divided by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
24 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 243 / 72

On to step 3:
243 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 216 from 243 and we're left with 27.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 273 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 273 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 57.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 33.0
If we take 216 away from 273, we end up with 57.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 579 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 579 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 338.0
Subtracting 576 from 579 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 338.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 338.04
If we take 288 away from 300, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 338.041
Deduct 72 from 120 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 9:
480 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 338.0416
If we take 432 away from 480, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 338.04166
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 338.04166, with a leftover of 4.8e-05.
