We divide 382487 by 72
We want to divide 382487 by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 72

On to step 2:
72 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 382 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 can be fit into 382 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 360 from 382 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 224 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
224 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we take 216 away from 224, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 88 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 531.0
Deduct 72 from 88 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 167 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 167 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 23.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5312.0
If we take 144 away from 167, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
72 can be fit into 230 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5312.3
If we take 216 away from 230, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5312.31
If we take 72 away from 140, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
72 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5312.319
If we subtract 648 from 680, we 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
72 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5312.3194
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left 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 11:
When dividing 320 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5312.31944
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.

Our division results in 5312.31944 with a remaining 3.2e-05.
