We look at the division of 251007 by 72 
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 251007.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 251 / 72

On to step 3:
72 goes into 251 3 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 216 away from 251, we end up with 35.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 350 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
350 divided by 72 is 4 with a remainder of 62.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we subtract 288 from 350, we get 62.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 62, then carry on: 620 / 72

Moving on to step 5:
72 can be fit into 620 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 348.0
If we subtract 576 from 620, we get 44.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 447 / 72

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 447 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3486.0
If we take 432 away from 447, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 72, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3486.2
If we subtract 144 from 150, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3486.2
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 9:
600 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3486.208
If we take 576 away from 600, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
240 divided by 72 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3486.2083
Deduct 216 from 240 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 24.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3486.20833
If we take 216 away from 240, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3486.20833, and the remainder is 2.4e-05.
