We're dividing 451039 by 72 
We want to divide 451039 by 72.

Step 1:
72 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 45 / 72

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 45 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 45.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 45 leaves us with 45.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 451 / 72

Step 3:
If we divide 451 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 19.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 432 from 451, we get 19.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 190 / 72

Step 4:
72 goes into 190 2 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 62.0
If we subtract 144 from 190, we get 46.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 463 / 72

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 463 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 626.0
If we take 432 away from 463, we end up with 31.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 319 / 72

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 319 by 72, we get 4 with a remainder of 31.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6264.0
Deduct 288 from 319 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
310 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6264.4
Deduct 288 from 310 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6264.43
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 216 from 220.
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 9:
40 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6264.43
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
72 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6264.4305
Subtract 360 from 400 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 400 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6264.43055
Subtract 360 from 400 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6264.43055 with a balance of 4e-05.
