Let's divide 184878 by 72
We want to divide 184878 by 72.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
18 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 18 leaves us with 18.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 184 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 184 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 144 from 184.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 408 / 72

On to step 4:
72 can be fit into 408 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtracting 360 from 408 leaves us with 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 can be fit into 487 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 256.0
Subtract 432 from 487 to get 55.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 558 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 558 7 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2567.0
Subtracting 504 from 558 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
72 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2567.7
Subtract 504 from 540 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 360 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2567.75
Deduct 360 from 360 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2567.75
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 72 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2567.75
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 2567.75 with a remainder of 0.0.
