We're dividing 301578 by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 301578 can be divided by 72.

Let's proceed to step 1:
72 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 30 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 72 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 301 / 72

On to step 3:
If we divide 301 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 13.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 288 from 301 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 135 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 goes into 135 1 times with a remainder of 63.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 72 from 135, we get 63.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 63 and continue with: 637 / 72

On to step 5:
The number 72 fits into 637 8 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 418.0
Deduct 576 from 637 and we're left with 61.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 618 / 72

Step 6:
618 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4188.0
Subtracting 576 from 618 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
420 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4188.5
If we take 360 away from 420, we end up 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.

Step 8:
72 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4188.58
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.

Step 9:
240 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4188.583
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 240 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4188.5833
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 4188.5833 with a balance of 0.00024.
