Let's divide 434831 by 72
We want to figure out the number of times 434831 can be divided by 72.

Advancing to step 1:
72 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 72

Step 2:
The number 72 fits into 43 0 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 43 to get 43.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 434 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
434 divided by 72 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 432 from 434.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 28 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60.0
Deduct 0 from 28 and we're left with 28.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 283 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 283 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 67.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 603.0
Deduct 216 from 283 and we're left with 67.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 671 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 671 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6039.0
Subtracting 648 from 671 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 230 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6039.3
Subtracting 216 from 230 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
72 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6039.31
Subtracting 72 from 140 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 680 9 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6039.319
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 648 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 320 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6039.3194
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6039.31944
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6039.31944, and the remainder is 3.2e-05.
