352986 divided by 72 
Our goal is to divide 352986 by 72.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 35 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 35 0 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 35 and we're left with 35.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 352 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 352 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 288 away from 352, we end up with 64.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 64, then repeat: 649 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
649 divided by 72 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we subtract 648 from 649, we get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 490.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 186 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 can be fit into 186 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4902.0
Subtract 144 from 186 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
420 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4902.5
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 360 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 600 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4902.58
Subtracting 576 from 600 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4902.583
Subtract 216 from 240 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
72 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4902.5833
Subtracting 216 from 240 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4902.5833, with a leftover of 0.00024.
