We're dividing 256066 by 72 
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 256066.

Moving on to step 1:
72 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 256 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
256 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 40.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 216 from 256 leaves us with 40.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 400 / 72

On to step 4:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
Deduct 360 from 400 and we're left with 40.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 406 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 406 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 46.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 355.0
Subtract 360 from 406 to get 46.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 466 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
72 can be fit into 466 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3556.0
Subtract 432 from 466 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 340 by 72, we get 4 and a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3556.4
Deduct 288 from 340 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 520 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3556.47
Deduct 504 from 520 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3556.472
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3556.4722
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3556.4722 with a remaining 0.00016.
