Let's divide 187640 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 187640.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
18 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 187 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
72 can be fit into 187 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 144 from 187 leaves us with 43.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 436 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
72 can be fit into 436 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 432 from 436 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 44 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 44 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 44.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 260.0
Subtract 0 from 44 to get 44.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 440 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 goes into 440 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2606.0
Subtracting 432 from 440 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 80 by 72, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2606.1
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
80 divided by 72 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2606.11
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2606.11, and the remainder is 0.008.
