Let's divide 515967 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 515967.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
72 goes into 51 0 times with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 51 and we're left with 51.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 515 / 72

Step 3:
The number 72 fits into 515 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 504 from 515 leaves us with 11.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 119 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 can be fit into 119 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 71.0
If we subtract 72 from 119, we get 47.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 476 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 476 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 44.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 716.0
Subtracting 432 from 476 leaves us with 44.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 447 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 goes into 447 6 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7166.0
Deduct 432 from 447 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7166.2
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 144 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
72 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7166.2
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7166.208
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 576 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
240 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7166.2083
If we subtract 216 from 240, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 240 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7166.20833
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 216 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7166.20833 with a balance of 2.4e-05.
