We look at the division of 72468859 by 668 
We're looking to find how many times 668 goes into 72468859.

Step 1:
7 divided by 668 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 668

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 668, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 724 / 668

Step 3:
The number 668 fits into 724 1 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 668 from 724, we get 56.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 566 / 668

Moving on to step 4:
668 goes into 566 0 times with a remainder of 566.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 566 and we're left with 566.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 566, then repeat: 5668 / 668

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 5668 by 668, we get 8 and a remainder of 324.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we take 5344 away from 5668, we end up with 324.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 324 and repeat the process: 3248 / 668

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 668 fits into 3248 4 times, leaving a remainder of 576.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1084.0
If we take 2672 away from 3248, we end up with 576.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 576, then carry on: 5765 / 668

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 5765 by 668, we get 8 and a remainder of 421.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10848.0
Deduct 5344 from 5765 and we're left with 421.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 421 and continue: 4219 / 668

Step 8:
668 can be fit into 4219 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 211.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 108486.0
Subtracting 4008 from 4219 leaves us with 211.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
2110 divided by 668 is 3 with a remainder of 106.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108486.3
Deduct 2004 from 2110 and we're left with 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
668 can be fit into 1060 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 392.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 108486.31
Deduct 668 from 1060 and we're left with 392.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3920, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 3920 by 668, we get 5 and a remainder of 580.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 108486.315
Subtracting 3340 from 3920 leaves us with 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
668 can be fit into 5800 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 456.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 108486.3158
If we subtract 5344 from 5800, we get 456.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
668 goes into 4560 6 times with a remainder of 552.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108486.31586
If we take 4008 away from 4560, we end up with 552.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 668 fits into 5520 8 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 108486.315868
Subtracting 5344 from 5520 leaves us with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
1760 divided by 668 is 2 with a remainder of 424.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108486.3158682
Deduct 1336 from 1760 and we're left with 424.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4240, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
4240 divided by 668 is 6 with a remainder of 232.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108486.31586826
If we subtract 4008 from 4240, we get 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 108486.31586826 with a remaining 2.32e-07.
