72426982 ÷ 52 
We want to divide 72426982 by 52.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
The number 52 fits into 72 1 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 52 from 72, we get 20.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 204 / 52

Going ahead to step 3:
52 can be fit into 204 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 156 from 204 to get 48.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 482 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 482 by 52, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 139.0
If we subtract 468 from 482, we get 14.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 146 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
146 divided by 52 is 2 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1392.0
If we subtract 104 from 146, we get 42.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 52

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 429 by 52, we get 8 with a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13928.0
Subtract 416 from 429 to get 13.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 138 / 52

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 138 by 52, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139282.0
Subtracting 104 from 138 leaves us with 34.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 342 / 52

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 342 by 52, we get 6 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1392826.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 312 from 342.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 300 by 52, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1392826.5
If we take 260 away from 300, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1392826.57
If we take 364 away from 400, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
52 can be fit into 360 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1392826.576
If we take 312 away from 360, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
480 divided by 52 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1392826.5769
Subtract 468 from 480 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 52 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1392826.57692
If we subtract 104 from 120, we get 16.
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 14:
52 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1392826.576923
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 52 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1392826.576923
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
52 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1392826.57692307
If we subtract 364 from 400, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1392826.57692307, with a leftover of 3.6e-08.
