Let's divide 72040857 by 384
We want to figure out the number of times 72040857 can be divided by 384.

Let's proceed to step 1:
384 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 384

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 384 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 72 and continue with: 720 / 384

Going ahead to step 3:
384 goes into 720 1 times with a remainder of 336.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 384 from 720 leaves us with 336.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 336 and repeat the process: 3364 / 384

Moving on to step 4:
384 can be fit into 3364 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 292.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 3072 from 3364 leaves us with 292.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 292 and continue with: 2920 / 384

Step 5:
384 goes into 2920 7 times with a remainder of 232.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187.0
Deduct 2688 from 2920 and we're left with 232.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 232, then repeat: 2328 / 384

Going ahead to step 6:
384 goes into 2328 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1876.0
If we take 2304 away from 2328, we end up with 24.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 245 / 384

Step 7:
The number 384 fits into 245 0 times, leaving a remainder of 245.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18760.0
If we subtract 0 from 245, we get 245.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 245 and continue: 2457 / 384

Advancing to step 8:
384 can be fit into 2457 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 153.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187606.0
Deduct 2304 from 2457 and we're left with 153.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
384 goes into 1530 3 times with a remainder of 378.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 187606.3
Subtracting 1152 from 1530 leaves us with 378.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
3780 divided by 384 is 9 with a remainder of 324.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187606.39
Subtracting 3456 from 3780 leaves us with 324.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 3240 by 384, we get 8 with a remainder of 168.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187606.398
Deduct 3072 from 3240 and we're left with 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
384 can be fit into 1680 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 144.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187606.3984
If we subtract 1536 from 1680, we get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 384 fits into 1440 3 times, leaving a remainder of 288.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187606.39843
Subtracting 1152 from 1440 leaves us with 288.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2880, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 384 fits into 2880 7 times, leaving a remainder of 192.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187606.398437
If we subtract 2688 from 2880, we get 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
384 goes into 1920 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187606.3984375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1920 from 1920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
The number 384 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187606.3984375
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 187606.3984375, and the remainder is 0.0.
