We're dividing 72762804 by 478 
Let's see how many times 478 fits into 72762804.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 478, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 478

Step 2:
When dividing 72 by 478, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 727 / 478

Moving on to step 3:
478 goes into 727 1 times with a remainder of 249.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 478 from 727 to get 249.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 249, then repeat: 2496 / 478

Let's proceed to step 4:
478 can be fit into 2496 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 106.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 2390 from 2496 and we're left with 106.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 106 and continue: 1062 / 478

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 478 fits into 1062 2 times, leaving a remainder of 106.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 152.0
Subtracting 956 from 1062 leaves us with 106.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 106, then repeat: 1068 / 478

Going ahead to step 6:
1068 divided by 478 is 2 with a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1522.0
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 956 from 1068.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 112, then carry on: 1120 / 478

On to step 7:
When dividing 1120 by 478, we get 2 with a remainder of 164.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15222.0
If we subtract 956 from 1120, we get 164.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 164, then repeat: 1644 / 478

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 1644 by 478, we get 3 with a remainder of 210.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 152223.0
If we take 1434 away from 1644, we end up with 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
2100 divided by 478 is 4 with a remainder of 188.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 152223.4
The remainder is 188 after subtracting 1912 from 2100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Step 10:
478 can be fit into 1880 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 446.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 152223.43
The remainder is 446 after subtracting 1434 from 1880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4460, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 478 fits into 4460 9 times, leaving a remainder of 158.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 152223.439
Deduct 4302 from 4460 and we're left with 158.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1580, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
478 goes into 1580 3 times with a remainder of 146.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 152223.4393
If we subtract 1434 from 1580, we get 146.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1460, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 478 fits into 1460 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 152223.43933
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 1434 from 1460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 152223.43933 with a balance of 2.6e-05.
