We're dividing 72382964 by 254 
We're looking to find how many times 254 goes into 72382964.

Moving on to step 1:
7 divided by 254 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 254

On to step 2:
72 divided by 254 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 723 / 254

Step 3:
254 can be fit into 723 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 215.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 508 from 723 to get 215.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 215 and continue with: 2158 / 254

Let's proceed to step 4:
254 can be fit into 2158 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 126.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtract 2032 from 2158 to get 126.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 126 and continue: 1262 / 254

Going ahead to step 5:
254 goes into 1262 4 times with a remainder of 246.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 284.0
Deduct 1016 from 1262 and we're left with 246.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 246 and continue: 2469 / 254

On to step 6:
2469 divided by 254 is 9 with a remainder of 183.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2849.0
The remainder is 183 after subtracting 2286 from 2469.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 183, then repeat: 1836 / 254

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 1836 by 254, we get 7 and a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28497.0
If we take 1778 away from 1836, we end up with 58.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 584 / 254

Moving on to step 8:
584 divided by 254 is 2 with a remainder of 76.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 284972.0
If we subtract 508 from 584, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 254 fits into 760 2 times, leaving a remainder of 252.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 284972.2
Deduct 508 from 760 and we're left with 252.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 2520 by 254, we get 9 with a remainder of 234.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 284972.29
Deduct 2286 from 2520 and we're left with 234.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
2340 divided by 254 is 9 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 284972.299
Subtract 2286 from 2340 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Our division results in 284972.299 with a remaining 0.0054.
