Let's divide 72586874 by 146
We want to figure out the number of times 72586874 can be divided by 146.

On to step 1:
146 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 146

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 146, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 725 / 146

Moving on to step 3:
146 can be fit into 725 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 141.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 141 after subtracting 584 from 725.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 141 and continue: 1418 / 146

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 146 fits into 1418 9 times, leaving a remainder of 104.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 104 after subtracting 1314 from 1418.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 104 and repeat the process: 1046 / 146

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1046 by 146, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 497.0
If we take 1022 away from 1046, we end up with 24.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 248 / 146

Step 6:
146 can be fit into 248 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 102.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4971.0
If we take 146 away from 248, we end up with 102.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 102 and continue: 1027 / 146

Let's proceed to step 7:
146 goes into 1027 7 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 49717.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 1022 from 1027.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 146

Moving on to step 8:
The number 146 fits into 54 0 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 497170.0
Deduct 0 from 54 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 540 by 146, we get 3 and a remainder of 102.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 497170.3
Subtract 438 from 540 to get 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
1020 divided by 146 is 6 with a remainder of 144.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 497170.36
Deduct 876 from 1020 and we're left with 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 11:
146 can be fit into 1440 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 126.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 497170.369
Subtract 1314 from 1440 to get 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 1260 by 146, we get 8 with a remainder of 92.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 497170.3698
If we take 1168 away from 1260, we end up with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 146 fits into 920 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 497170.36986
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 876 from 920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 440 by 146, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 497170.369863
If we take 438 away from 440, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
146 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 497170.369863
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
When dividing 200 by 146, we get 1 with a remainder of 54.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 497170.36986301
Subtract 146 from 200 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Our division results in 497170.36986301 with a remaining 5.4e-08.
