We divide 315872 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 315872.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 72

On to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 315 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 315 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 288 from 315, we get 27.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
278 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 62.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we take 216 away from 278, we end up with 62.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 627 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 627 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 51.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 438.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 576 from 627.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 512 / 72

On to step 6:
If we divide 512 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4387.0
If we subtract 504 from 512, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 80 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4387.1
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4387.11
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4387.11 with a balance of 0.008.
