We look at the division of 74 by 72 
Our goal is to divide 74 by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
72 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 74 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 72 away from 74, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 3:
20 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.02
If we subtract 144 from 200, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 560 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1.027
Deduct 504 from 560 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 560 by 72, we get 7 and a remainder of 56.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0277
Subtract 504 from 560 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1.0277, with a leftover of 0.00056.
