We look at the division of 72916810 by 255 
We want to figure out the number of times 72916810 can be divided by 255.

Going ahead to step 1:
255 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 255

Going ahead to step 2:
72 divided by 255 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 729 / 255

Going ahead to step 3:
255 goes into 729 2 times with a remainder of 219.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 510 from 729, we get 219.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 219 and continue: 2191 / 255

Step 4:
255 goes into 2191 8 times with a remainder of 151.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 2040 from 2191, we get 151.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 151 and repeat the process: 1516 / 255

On to step 5:
If we divide 1516 by 255, we get 5 and a remainder of 241.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 285.0
The remainder is 241 after subtracting 1275 from 1516.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 241, then carry on: 2418 / 255

Advancing to step 6:
255 can be fit into 2418 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 123.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2859.0
Deduct 2295 from 2418 and we're left with 123.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 123 and repeat the process: 1231 / 255

On to step 7:
When dividing 1231 by 255, we get 4 with a remainder of 211.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28594.0
Subtract 1020 from 1231 to get 211.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 211 and repeat the process: 2110 / 255

Step 8:
255 can be fit into 2110 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 285948.0
Subtract 2040 from 2110 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
255 goes into 700 2 times with a remainder of 190.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 285948.2
The remainder is 190 after subtracting 510 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 1900 by 255, we get 7 with a remainder of 115.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 285948.27
If we take 1785 away from 1900, we end up with 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
255 can be fit into 1150 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 130.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 285948.274
Subtracting 1020 from 1150 leaves us with 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 1300 by 255, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 285948.2745
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 1275 from 1300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 250 by 255, we get 0 with a remainder of 250.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 285948.2745
The remainder is 250 after subtracting 0 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Step 14:
255 goes into 2500 9 times with a remainder of 205.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 285948.274509
If we take 2295 away from 2500, we end up with 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 255 fits into 2050 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 285948.2745098
Subtracting 2040 from 2050 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 16:
255 can be fit into 100 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 285948.2745098
If we subtract 0 from 100, we get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Our division results in 285948.2745098 with a remaining 1e-07.
