239997 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 239997 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
72 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 239 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 goes into 239 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 216 from 239 to get 23.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 239 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 can be fit into 239 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 216 from 239.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 239 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
72 goes into 239 3 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 333.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 216 from 239.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 237 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
237 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3333.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 216 from 237.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
72 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 66.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3333.2
If we take 144 away from 210, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
72 can be fit into 660 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3333.29
If we subtract 648 from 660, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
72 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3333.291
Subtracting 72 from 120 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
72 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3333.2916
If we subtract 432 from 480, we get 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 11:
72 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3333.29166
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.

The quotient of the division is 3333.29166, and the remainder is 4.8e-05.
