146473 divided by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 146473.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 146 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 can be fit into 146 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 144 from 146.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 24 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 247 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 247 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 203.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 216 from 247.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 313 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 313 4 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2034.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 288 from 313.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2034.3
Subtracting 216 from 250 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
72 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2034.34
Deduct 288 from 340 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 520 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2034.347
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 504 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2034.3472
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2034.34722
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2034.34722 with a remaining 1.6e-05.
