72980794 divided by 236 
We're looking to find how many times 236 goes into 72980794.

Step 1:
When dividing 7 by 236, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 236

Step 2:
The number 236 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 729 / 236

Going ahead to step 3:
236 goes into 729 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 708 from 729.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 218 / 236

On to step 4:
If we divide 218 by 236, we get 0 and a remainder of 218.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 218 after subtracting 0 from 218.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 218 and continue with: 2180 / 236

Step 5:
When dividing 2180 by 236, we get 9 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 309.0
If we take 2124 away from 2180, we end up with 56.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 567 / 236

Advancing to step 6:
236 can be fit into 567 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 95.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3092.0
Subtracting 472 from 567 leaves us with 95.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 95, then carry on: 959 / 236

Step 7:
236 goes into 959 4 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30924.0
If we take 944 away from 959, we end up with 15.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 154 / 236

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 154 by 236, we get 0 and a remainder of 154.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 309240.0
Subtract 0 from 154 to get 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
236 goes into 1540 6 times with a remainder of 124.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 309240.6
Subtract 1416 from 1540 to get 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 236 fits into 1240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 309240.65
Subtracting 1180 from 1240 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
236 goes into 600 2 times with a remainder of 128.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 309240.652
Subtracting 472 from 600 leaves us with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 1280 by 236, we get 5 with a remainder of 100.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 309240.6525
If we subtract 1180 from 1280, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
236 can be fit into 1000 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 309240.65254
If we subtract 944 from 1000, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
236 can be fit into 560 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 88.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 309240.652542
Subtracting 472 from 560 leaves us with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 880 by 236, we get 3 with a remainder of 172.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 309240.6525423
If we take 708 away from 880, we end up with 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
236 goes into 1720 7 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 309240.65254237
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 1652 from 1720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 309240.65254237, with a leftover of 6.8e-08.
