72189557 divided by 142 
Let's see how many times 142 fits into 72189557.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 142, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 142

Advancing to step 2:
The number 142 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 721 / 142

On to step 3:
142 can be fit into 721 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 710 from 721, we get 11.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 118 / 142

On to step 4:
When dividing 118 by 142, we get 0 with a remainder of 118.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
If we take 0 away from 118, we end up with 118.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 118, then repeat: 1189 / 142

Advancing to step 5:
1189 divided by 142 is 8 with a remainder of 53.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 508.0
Subtracting 1136 from 1189 leaves us with 53.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 535 / 142

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 535 by 142, we get 3 with a remainder of 109.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5083.0
Subtracting 426 from 535 leaves us with 109.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 109, then repeat: 1095 / 142

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 1095 by 142, we get 7 and a remainder of 101.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 50837.0
Deduct 994 from 1095 and we're left with 101.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 101 and repeat the process: 1017 / 142

Advancing to step 8:
1017 divided by 142 is 7 with a remainder of 23.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 508377.0
Deduct 994 from 1017 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
230 divided by 142 is 1 with a remainder of 88.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 508377.1
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 142 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 142 fits into 880 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 508377.16
If we subtract 852 from 880, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
142 goes into 280 1 times with a remainder of 138.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 508377.161
Deduct 142 from 280 and we're left with 138.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 142 fits into 1380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 102.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 508377.1619
If we subtract 1278 from 1380, we get 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Step 13:
1020 divided by 142 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 508377.16197
Subtracting 994 from 1020 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
260 divided by 142 is 1 with a remainder of 118.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 508377.161971
The remainder is 118 after subtracting 142 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
142 can be fit into 1180 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 508377.1619718
If we take 1136 away from 1180, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 16:
If we divide 440 by 142, we get 3 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 508377.16197183
Subtract 426 from 440 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 508377.16197183, with a leftover of 1.4e-08.
