We're dividing 45952 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 45952.

On to step 1:
72 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 45 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 45 and we're left with 45.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 459 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 459 6 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 432 from 459, we get 27.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 275 / 72

Advancing to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 275 3 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
Deduct 216 from 275 and we're left with 59.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 592 / 72

On to step 5:
If we divide 592 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 638.0
Subtracting 576 from 592 leaves us 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.

Step 6:
72 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 638.2
If we subtract 144 from 160, 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 7:
72 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 638.22
Deduct 144 from 160 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 638.22 with a balance of 0.016.
