268428 divided by 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 268428.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 72

Step 2:
72 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 268 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 can be fit into 268 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 216 from 268 and we're left with 52.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 524 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
72 goes into 524 7 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 504 from 524 leaves us with 20.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 202 / 72

On to step 5:
72 can be fit into 202 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 372.0
If we subtract 144 from 202, we get 58.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 58, then repeat: 588 / 72

On to step 6:
If we divide 588 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3728.0
Deduct 576 from 588 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 120 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 48.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3728.1
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 72 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
72 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3728.16
Subtracting 432 from 480 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3728.166
If we subtract 432 from 480, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3728.166 with a balance of 0.0048.
