We look at the division of 272872 by 96 
We want to divide 272872 by 96.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 96 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 96

Advancing to step 2:
27 divided by 96 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 272 / 96

Going ahead to step 3:
96 goes into 272 2 times with a remainder of 80.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 192 from 272, we get 80.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 80, then repeat: 808 / 96

Advancing to step 4:
The number 96 fits into 808 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 768 from 808, we get 40.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 407 / 96

Moving on to step 5:
96 can be fit into 407 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 284.0
Deduct 384 from 407 and we're left with 23.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 232 / 96

Moving on to step 6:
232 divided by 96 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2842.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 192 from 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 400 by 96, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2842.4
Subtract 384 from 400 to get 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 8:
96 can be fit into 160 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2842.41
Deduct 96 from 160 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
640 divided by 96 is 6 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2842.416
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
96 goes into 640 6 times with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2842.4166
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2842.4166 with a balance of 0.00064.
