437278 ÷ 72 
We want to divide 437278 by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 43 / 72

Step 2:
The number 72 fits into 43 0 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 43 leaves us with 43.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 437 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 437 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 432 away from 437, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 52 0 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60.0
Subtracting 0 from 52 leaves us with 52.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 527 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 527 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 607.0
Subtract 504 from 527 to get 23.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 238 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 goes into 238 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6073.0
Subtract 216 from 238 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.

Advancing to step 7:
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: 6073.3
Deduct 216 from 220 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6073.3
Subtract 0 from 40 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6073.305
Deduct 360 from 400 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 400 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6073.3055
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 360 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6073.3055 with a remaining 0.0004.
