481915 ÷ 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 481915 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 481 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 481 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 49.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 432 from 481, we get 49.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 499 / 72

Step 4:
The number 72 fits into 499 6 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 66.0
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 432 from 499.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 671 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
72 can be fit into 671 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 669.0
Deduct 648 from 671 and we're left with 23.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 235 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 235 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6693.0
Subtract 216 from 235 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 190 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6693.2
Deduct 144 from 190 and we're left 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:
460 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6693.26
If we take 432 away from 460, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6693.263
Subtract 216 from 280 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.

Step 10:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6693.2638
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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 640 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6693.26388
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 6693.26388 with a balance of 6.4e-05.
