Let's divide 368589 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 368589.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 36 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 36.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 36, we get 36.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 368 / 72

On to step 3:
When dividing 368 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 360 from 368.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
72 can be fit into 85 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 51.0
Deduct 72 from 85 and we're left with 13.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 138 / 72

Step 5:
72 goes into 138 1 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 511.0
If we subtract 72 from 138, we get 66.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 66, then repeat: 669 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 669 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5119.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 648 from 669.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
210 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 66.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5119.2
Subtracting 144 from 210 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 can be fit into 660 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5119.29
Subtract 648 from 660 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
72 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5119.291
If we subtract 72 from 120, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5119.2916
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5119.29166
If we subtract 432 from 480, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5119.29166, with a leftover of 4.8e-05.
