Let's divide 164399 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 164399 can be divided by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
72 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 can be fit into 16 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 0 from 16.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 164 / 72

On to step 3:
If we divide 164 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 144 from 164, we get 20.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 203 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 203 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Deduct 144 from 203 and we're left with 59.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 599 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 goes into 599 8 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 228.0
If we subtract 576 from 599, we get 23.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 can be fit into 239 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2283.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 216 from 239.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 230 3 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2283.3
Subtract 216 from 230 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2283.31
Deduct 72 from 140 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 can be fit into 680 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2283.319
Subtracting 648 from 680 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
320 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2283.3194
Subtract 288 from 320 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2283.31944
Subtract 288 from 320 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2283.31944, and the remainder is 3.2e-05.
