We look at the division of 52232 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 52232.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 52 leaves us with 52.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 522 / 72

Step 3:
522 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 504 from 522, we get 18.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 183 / 72

Going ahead to step 4:
72 goes into 183 2 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 72.0
If we take 144 away from 183, we end up with 39.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 392 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 392 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 725.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 360 from 392.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
72 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 725.4
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 72 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 725.44
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 725.44 with a balance of 0.032.
