Let's divide 489483 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 489483 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
72 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 489 / 72

On to step 3:
72 goes into 489 6 times with a remainder of 57.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 432 from 489 to get 57.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 574 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 574 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 67.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 504 from 574.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 70, then carry on: 708 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 goes into 708 9 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 679.0
Subtract 648 from 708 to get 60.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 603 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 goes into 603 8 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6798.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 576 from 603.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
270 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 54.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6798.3
Subtracting 216 from 270 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 540 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6798.37
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 504 from 540.
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 9:
360 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6798.375
Subtract 360 from 360 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6798.375
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6798.375
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

The final outcome is 6798.375, with a leftover of 0.0.
