Let's divide 11451 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 11451 can be divided by 72.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 72

Step 2:
When dividing 11 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 114 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 can be fit into 114 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 114 to get 42.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 425 / 72

On to step 4:
When dividing 425 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 360 from 425.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 651 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
651 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 159.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 648 from 651.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 30 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 159.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 300 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 159.04
If we take 288 away from 300, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
72 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 159.041
Deduct 72 from 120 and we're left with 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 9:
72 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 159.0416
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 10:
480 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 159.04166
Subtracting 432 from 480 leaves us with 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 quotient of the division is 159.04166, and the remainder is 4.8e-05.
