117607 ÷ 72 
Our goal is to divide 117607 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 72

Step 2:
11 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 117 / 72

On to step 3:
When dividing 117 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 117, we end up with 45.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 456 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 456 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 432 from 456 leaves us with 24.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 240 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 240 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 163.0
Subtracting 216 from 240 leaves us with 24.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 247 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 247 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1633.0
If we subtract 216 from 247, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
72 goes into 310 4 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1633.4
Subtract 288 from 310 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
72 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1633.43
If we subtract 216 from 220, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
72 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1633.43
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
72 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1633.4305
If we take 360 away from 400, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1633.43055
Subtract 360 from 400 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1633.43055, with a leftover of 4e-05.
