We're dividing 72205852 by 299 
We want to figure out the number of times 72205852 can be divided by 299.

Step 1:
299 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 299

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 299 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 722 / 299

Going ahead to step 3:
722 divided by 299 is 2 with a remainder of 124.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 598 from 722, we get 124.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 124 and repeat the process: 1240 / 299

Going ahead to step 4:
299 can be fit into 1240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 1196 from 1240.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 445 / 299

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 445 by 299, we get 1 and a remainder of 146.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 241.0
The remainder is 146 after subtracting 299 from 445.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 146, then carry on: 1468 / 299

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 1468 by 299, we get 4 and a remainder of 272.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2414.0
Subtracting 1196 from 1468 leaves us with 272.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 272, then repeat: 2725 / 299

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 2725 by 299, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24149.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 2691 from 2725.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 342 / 299

Step 8:
When dividing 342 by 299, we get 1 with a remainder of 43.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 241491.0
Subtract 299 from 342 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 430 by 299, we get 1 and a remainder of 131.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 241491.1
Subtract 299 from 430 to get 131.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
299 goes into 1310 4 times with a remainder of 114.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 241491.14
Deduct 1196 from 1310 and we're left with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
299 can be fit into 1140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 243.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 241491.143
Subtract 897 from 1140 to get 243.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
2430 divided by 299 is 8 with a remainder of 38.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 241491.1438
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 2392 from 2430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 380 by 299, we get 1 and a remainder of 81.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 241491.14381
Subtract 299 from 380 to get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Step 14:
810 divided by 299 is 2 with a remainder of 212.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 241491.143812
If we subtract 598 from 810, we get 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
2120 divided by 299 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 241491.1438127
Subtract 2093 from 2120 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
299 can be fit into 270 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 270.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 241491.1438127
The remainder is 270 after subtracting 0 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 241491.1438127, and the remainder is 2.7e-07.
