Let's divide 104484 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 104484 can be divided by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
72 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 10 / 72

Step 2:
When dividing 10 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 104 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 goes into 104 1 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 104 to get 32.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 324 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 goes into 324 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 288 from 324 leaves us with 36.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 368 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 368 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 8.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145.0
If we subtract 360 from 368, we get 8.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 84 / 72

Step 6:
84 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1451.0
Subtract 72 from 84 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1451.1
Deduct 72 from 120 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1451.16
Subtracting 432 from 480 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1451.166
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1451.166 with a balance of 0.0048.
