186246 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 186246 by 72.

Step 1:
1 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 186 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 186 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 144 from 186, we get 42.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 422 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
72 can be fit into 422 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 360 from 422.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 62, then carry on: 624 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
72 can be fit into 624 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 258.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 576 from 624.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 486 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 goes into 486 6 times with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2586.0
If we take 432 away from 486, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 540 7 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2586.7
Subtract 504 from 540 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 360 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2586.75
Deduct 360 from 360 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2586.75
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 0 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2586.75
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2586.75 and a remainder of 0.0.
