We divide 72940814 by 254
We're looking to find how many times 254 goes into 72940814.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 254 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 254

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 254, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 729 / 254

On to step 3:
729 divided by 254 is 2 with a remainder of 221.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 221 after subtracting 508 from 729.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 221, then carry on: 2214 / 254

Going ahead to step 4:
2214 divided by 254 is 8 with a remainder of 182.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 2032 from 2214 leaves us with 182.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 182 and continue: 1820 / 254

Advancing to step 5:
The number 254 fits into 1820 7 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 287.0
Deduct 1778 from 1820 and we're left with 42.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 428 / 254

On to step 6:
If we divide 428 by 254, we get 1 and a remainder of 174.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2871.0
Subtracting 254 from 428 leaves us with 174.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 174 and continue: 1741 / 254

Step 7:
When dividing 1741 by 254, we get 6 with a remainder of 217.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28716.0
If we take 1524 away from 1741, we end up with 217.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 217, then repeat: 2174 / 254

Step 8:
254 can be fit into 2174 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 142.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 287168.0
Subtracting 2032 from 2174 leaves us with 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
254 can be fit into 1420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 150.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 287168.5
If we subtract 1270 from 1420, we get 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 1500 by 254, we get 5 and a remainder of 230.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 287168.55
If we take 1270 away from 1500, we end up with 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 287168.55, with a leftover of 0.23.
