Let's divide 72523569 by 488
Our goal is to divide 72523569 by 488.

Moving on to step 1:
7 divided by 488 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 488

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 488, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 725 / 488

Moving on to step 3:
The number 488 fits into 725 1 times, leaving a remainder of 237.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 488 from 725 to get 237.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 237, then carry on: 2372 / 488

Let's proceed to step 4:
488 can be fit into 2372 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 420.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 1952 from 2372 and we're left with 420.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 420 and continue: 4203 / 488

Let's proceed to step 5:
4203 divided by 488 is 8 with a remainder of 299.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148.0
Subtract 3904 from 4203 to get 299.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 299 and repeat the process: 2995 / 488

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 2995 by 488, we get 6 with a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1486.0
Subtracting 2928 from 2995 leaves us with 67.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 676 / 488

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 676 by 488, we get 1 with a remainder of 188.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14861.0
If we subtract 488 from 676, we get 188.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 188 and continue: 1889 / 488

On to step 8:
488 goes into 1889 3 times with a remainder of 425.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148613.0
If we subtract 1464 from 1889, we get 425.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 488 fits into 4250 8 times, leaving a remainder of 346.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148613.8
If we subtract 3904 from 4250, we get 346.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 3460 by 488, we get 7 with a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148613.87
Deduct 3416 from 3460 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 440 by 488, we get 0 with a remainder of 440.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 148613.87
The remainder is 440 after subtracting 0 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4400, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 4400 by 488, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148613.8709
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 4392 from 4400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 488 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148613.8709
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 488 fits into 800 1 times, leaving a remainder of 312.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148613.870901
The remainder is 312 after subtracting 488 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

Step 15:
3120 divided by 488 is 6 with a remainder of 192.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148613.8709016
Deduct 2928 from 3120 and we're left with 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 488 fits into 1920 3 times, leaving a remainder of 456.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148613.87090163
Deduct 1464 from 1920 and we're left with 456.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 148613.87090163 and a remainder of 4.56e-07.
