We divide 480438 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 480438.

Step 1:
72 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 72

Step 2:
72 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 480 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
480 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left with 48.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 484 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 484 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 66.0
If we take 432 away from 484, we end up with 52.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 523 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 523 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 667.0
If we subtract 504 from 523, we get 19.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 198 / 72

On to step 6:
72 can be fit into 198 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6672.0
Subtracting 144 from 198 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 540 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6672.7
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 504 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 360 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6672.75
Subtract 360 from 360 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 0 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6672.75
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6672.75
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 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 final outcome is 6672.75, with a leftover of 0.0.
