Let's divide 74005 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 74005 can be divided by 72.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 72

On to step 2:
74 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 74, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 20 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 200 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 102.0
Deduct 144 from 200 and we're left with 56.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 565 / 72

On to step 5:
If we divide 565 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 61.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1027.0
Deduct 504 from 565 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 610 8 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1027.8
If we subtract 576 from 610, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1027.84
Subtracting 288 from 340 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 goes into 520 7 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1027.847
If we take 504 away from 520, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 160 by 72, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1027.8472
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1027.84722
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1027.84722, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
