We divide 139758 by 72
Our goal is to divide 139758 by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
72 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 13 / 72

On to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 13 0 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 13 and we're left with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 139 1 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 72 from 139 and we're left with 67.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 677 / 72

On to step 4:
72 can be fit into 677 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 648 from 677.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 295 / 72

On to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 295 4 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 194.0
Deduct 288 from 295 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 78 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1941.0
Subtracting 72 from 78 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 60 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1941.0
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 600 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1941.08
If we take 576 away from 600, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
72 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1941.083
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.

Step 10:
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: 1941.0833
If we subtract 216 from 240, we 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.

Our division results in 1941.0833 with a remaining 0.00024.
