Let's divide 472895 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 472895 can be divided by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 72

Step 2:
72 goes into 47 0 times with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 472 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 472 6 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 432 from 472 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 408 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 goes into 408 5 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 65.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 360 from 408.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 489 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 489 6 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 656.0
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 432 from 489.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 575 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 575 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6567.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 504 from 575.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
710 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 62.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6567.9
Deduct 648 from 710 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 620 8 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6567.98
Subtract 576 from 620 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 can be fit into 440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6567.986
Subtracting 432 from 440 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
72 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6567.9861
Deduct 72 from 80 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
72 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6567.98611
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6567.98611, and the remainder is 8e-06.
