72278 ÷ 44 
We're looking to find how many times 44 goes into 72278.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 44

Moving on to step 2:
72 divided by 44 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 44 from 72 and we're left with 28.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 282 / 44

Step 3:
44 can be fit into 282 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 264 from 282 to get 18.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 187 / 44

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 44 fits into 187 4 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 164.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 176 from 187.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 118 / 44

On to step 5:
When dividing 118 by 44, we get 2 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1642.0
Subtracting 88 from 118 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 6:
44 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1642.6
Deduct 264 from 300 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 360 by 44, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1642.68
If we subtract 352 from 360, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 44, we get 1 with a remainder of 36.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1642.681
Subtract 44 from 80 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 44, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1642.6818
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 352 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 44, we get 1 with a remainder of 36.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1642.68181
If we take 44 away from 80, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
360 divided by 44 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1642.681818
If we take 352 away from 360, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 80 by 44, we get 1 and a remainder of 36.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1642.6818181
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 44 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 360 by 44, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1642.68181818
Subtract 352 from 360 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1642.68181818, and the remainder is 8e-09.
