We're dividing 464901 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 464901.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 46 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 46 and we're left with 46.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 464 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 can be fit into 464 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 432 from 464 to get 32.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 329 / 72

On to step 4:
If we divide 329 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 64.0
Deduct 288 from 329 and we're left with 41.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 410 / 72

Advancing to step 5:
72 can be fit into 410 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 645.0
Deduct 360 from 410 and we're left with 50.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 501 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
72 goes into 501 6 times with a remainder of 69.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6456.0
Subtracting 432 from 501 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 690 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6456.9
If we take 648 away from 690, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
420 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6456.95
Deduct 360 from 420 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.

Advancing to step 9:
600 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6456.958
If we subtract 576 from 600, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 72 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6456.9583
If we take 216 away from 240, 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
72 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6456.95833
Subtract 216 from 240 to get 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 result is 6456.95833 with a remainder of 2.4e-05.
