We look at the division of 18688023 by 272 
We're looking to find how many times 272 goes into 18688023.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 272, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 272

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 272 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 186 / 272

Moving on to step 3:
186 divided by 272 is 0 with a remainder of 186.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 186 after subtracting 0 from 186.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 186, then carry on: 1868 / 272

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 1868 by 272, we get 6 with a remainder of 236.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 1632 away from 1868, we end up with 236.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 236, then repeat: 2368 / 272

Moving on to step 5:
The number 272 fits into 2368 8 times, leaving a remainder of 192.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 68.0
Deduct 2176 from 2368 and we're left with 192.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 192 and continue with: 1920 / 272

Going ahead to step 6:
1920 divided by 272 is 7 with a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 687.0
Deduct 1904 from 1920 and we're left with 16.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 162 / 272

Step 7:
162 divided by 272 is 0 with a remainder of 162.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6870.0
The remainder is 162 after subtracting 0 from 162.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 162, then carry on: 1623 / 272

Moving on to step 8:
The number 272 fits into 1623 5 times, leaving a remainder of 263.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 68705.0
Deduct 1360 from 1623 and we're left with 263.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2630, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 2630 by 272, we get 9 and a remainder of 182.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 68705.9
The remainder is 182 after subtracting 2448 from 2630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 272 fits into 1820 6 times, leaving a remainder of 188.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68705.96
If we take 1632 away from 1820, we end up with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 1880 by 272, we get 6 with a remainder of 248.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 68705.966
Subtracting 1632 from 1880 leaves us with 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2480, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 68705.966 and a remainder of 0.0248.
