We're dividing 438315 by 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 438315.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 43 / 72

On to step 2:
72 can be fit into 43 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 43, we end up with 43.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 438 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
72 can be fit into 438 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 432 away from 438, we end up with 6.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 63 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
63 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 63.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60.0
Subtracting 0 from 63 leaves us with 63.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 631 / 72

Step 5:
When dividing 631 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 608.0
If we subtract 576 from 631, we get 55.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 555 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 555 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 51.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6087.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 504 from 555.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
510 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6087.7
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 504 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6087.7
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 600 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6087.708
If we take 576 away from 600, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6087.7083
Subtracting 216 from 240 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
72 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6087.70833
Subtracting 216 from 240 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6087.70833, with a leftover of 2.4e-05.
