22538 divided by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 22538.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
22 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 225 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 225 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 216 from 225 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 93 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 goes into 93 1 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we take 72 away from 93, we end up with 21.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 218 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 218 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 313.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 216 from 218.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
72 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 313.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we 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.

On to step 7:
200 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 313.02
Deduct 144 from 200 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.

On to step 8:
72 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 313.027
Subtracting 504 from 560 leaves us 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 9:
560 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 313.0277
If we subtract 504 from 560, 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.

After the division, we end up with 313.0277 and a remainder of 0.00056.
