Let's divide 179120 by 72
Our goal is to divide 179120 by 72.

On to step 1:
The number 72 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
72 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 179 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 goes into 179 2 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 144 from 179 to get 35.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 351 / 72

Step 4:
The number 72 fits into 351 4 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 288 away from 351, we end up with 63.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 632 / 72

Going ahead to step 5:
72 can be fit into 632 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 248.0
If we take 576 away from 632, we end up with 56.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 560 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2487.0
If we subtract 504 from 560, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 560 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 56.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2487.7
If we take 504 away from 560, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
560 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 56.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2487.77
Deduct 504 from 560 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2487.77 with a balance of 0.056.
