We're dividing 72487671 by 459 
We're looking to find how many times 459 goes into 72487671.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 459, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 459

Moving on to step 2:
72 divided by 459 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 72 leaves us with 72.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 724 / 459

On to step 3:
When dividing 724 by 459, we get 1 with a remainder of 265.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 459 from 724 to get 265.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 265, then repeat: 2658 / 459

Let's proceed to step 4:
459 goes into 2658 5 times with a remainder of 363.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 2295 from 2658 leaves us with 363.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 363, then repeat: 3637 / 459

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 3637 by 459, we get 7 and a remainder of 424.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we subtract 3213 from 3637, we get 424.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 424, then repeat: 4246 / 459

On to step 6:
The number 459 fits into 4246 9 times, leaving a remainder of 115.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1579.0
The remainder is 115 after subtracting 4131 from 4246.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 115, then repeat: 1157 / 459

Step 7:
When dividing 1157 by 459, we get 2 with a remainder of 239.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15792.0
Subtracting 918 from 1157 leaves us with 239.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 239 and continue with: 2391 / 459

Advancing to step 8:
2391 divided by 459 is 5 with a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157925.0
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 2295 from 2391.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 960 by 459, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157925.2
Subtracting 918 from 960 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 459 fits into 420 0 times, leaving a remainder of 420.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157925.2
If we take 0 away from 420, we end up with 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
459 can be fit into 4200 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 157925.209
Subtracting 4131 from 4200 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
459 can be fit into 690 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 231.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157925.2091
If we subtract 459 from 690, we get 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
459 goes into 2310 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157925.20915
If we subtract 2295 from 2310, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 150 by 459, we get 0 with a remainder of 150.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157925.20915
Subtract 0 from 150 to get 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
1500 divided by 459 is 3 with a remainder of 123.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157925.2091503
If we subtract 1377 from 1500, we get 123.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1230, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 1230 by 459, we get 2 and a remainder of 312.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157925.20915032
If we take 918 away from 1230, we end up with 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

The final result is 157925.20915032 with a remainder of 3.12e-07.
