471492 ÷ 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 471492.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 72

Step 2:
If we divide 47 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 471 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 can be fit into 471 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 432 from 471 to get 39.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 394 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
72 goes into 394 5 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65.0
If we take 360 away from 394, we end up with 34.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 349 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 goes into 349 4 times with a remainder of 61.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 654.0
Subtract 288 from 349 to get 61.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 61 and repeat the process: 612 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 goes into 612 8 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6548.0
Subtract 576 from 612 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 360 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6548.5
Subtracting 360 from 360 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6548.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
72 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6548.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 6548.5 with a remainder of 0.0.
