We divide 83104 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 83104 can be divided by 72.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 83 / 72

On to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 83 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 83 to get 11.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 111 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 111 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 72 away from 111, we end up with 39.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 390 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 390 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 115.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 360 from 390.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 304 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 can be fit into 304 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1154.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 288 from 304.
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 6:
The number 72 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1154.2
Subtract 144 from 160 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.

Step 7:
160 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1154.22
If we subtract 144 from 160, we 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.

Our division results in 1154.22 with a remaining 0.016.
