Let's divide 229780 by 72
We want to divide 229780 by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
72 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 72

Step 2:
72 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 72

On to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 229 3 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 216 from 229.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 137 / 72

Step 4:
When dividing 137 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we take 72 away from 137, we end up with 65.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 658 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 can be fit into 658 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 319.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 648 from 658.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 100 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
100 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3191.0
Deduct 72 from 100 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 280 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 64.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3191.3
Subtract 216 from 280 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 8:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3191.38
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
72 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3191.388
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3191.388 and a remainder of 0.0064.
