We look at the division of 72356 by 3 
We want to divide 72356 by 3.

Step 1:
The number 3 fits into 7 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 6 from 7 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
3 goes into 12 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtract 12 from 12 to get 0.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 3 / 3

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 3 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 241.0
If we subtract 3 from 3, we get 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 3

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 5 by 3, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2411.0
If we take 3 away from 5, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 3

Going ahead to step 5:
3 goes into 26 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24118.0
If we take 24 away from 26, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24118.6
Subtracting 18 from 20 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 3 fits into 20 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24118.66
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 24118.66, with a leftover of 0.002.
