Let's divide 167389 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 167389.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 16 0 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 167 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 167 2 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 144 from 167.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 233 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
72 goes into 233 3 times with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 216 from 233.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 178 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 178 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 232.0
If we subtract 144 from 178, we get 34.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 349 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
The number 72 fits into 349 4 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2324.0
Subtracting 288 from 349 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 610 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2324.8
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 576 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2324.84
If we subtract 288 from 340, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2324.847
Deduct 504 from 520 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
160 divided by 72 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2324.8472
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 72 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2324.84722
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2324.84722, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
