272844 ÷ 12 
We're looking to find how many times 12 goes into 272844.

Step 1:
2 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 12

Advancing to step 2:
The number 12 fits into 27 2 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 24 from 27 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 32 / 12

Advancing to step 3:
12 goes into 32 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtracting 24 from 32 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 12

Advancing to step 4:
88 divided by 12 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 227.0
If we take 84 away from 88, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 12

Let's proceed to step 5:
12 goes into 44 3 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2273.0
Deduct 36 from 44 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 12

Advancing to step 6:
The number 12 fits into 84 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22737.0
Subtracting 84 from 84 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 7:
0 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22737.0
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 12, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22737.0
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 22737.0 with a balance of 0.0.
