276915 divided by 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 276915.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 276 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 276 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 60.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 216 from 276, we get 60.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 60, then repeat: 609 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 goes into 609 8 times with a remainder of 33.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtract 576 from 609 to get 33.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 331 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 goes into 331 4 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 384.0
If we subtract 288 from 331, we get 43.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 435 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 435 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3846.0
If we subtract 432 from 435, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 30 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3846.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
300 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3846.04
Deduct 288 from 300 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3846.041
If we subtract 72 from 120, 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.

Step 10:
480 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3846.0416
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.

Step 11:
The number 72 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3846.04166
Deduct 432 from 480 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 3846.04166 with a remaining 4.8e-05.
