Let's divide 38240263 by 72
We want to divide 38240263 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 38 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 382 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 382 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 360 from 382 leaves us with 22.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 224 / 72

Step 4:
224 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
Deduct 216 from 224 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 80 / 72

Step 5:
72 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 531.0
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 82 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 82 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5311.0
Subtracting 72 from 82 leaves us with 10.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 106 / 72

Step 7:
When dividing 106 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 34.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53111.0
If we take 72 away from 106, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 343 / 72

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 343 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 55.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 531114.0
If we subtract 288 from 343, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
550 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 531114.7
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 504 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
72 goes into 460 6 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 531114.76
Deduct 432 from 460 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
72 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 531114.763
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.

On to step 12:
The number 72 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531114.7638
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 531114.76388
Subtract 576 from 640 to 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.

After the division, we end up with 531114.76388 and a remainder of 6.4e-05.
