We divide 237277 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 237277.

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
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 72

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 23 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 237 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 237 by 72, we get 3 and a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 216 from 237 to get 21.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 212 / 72

On to step 4:
72 can be fit into 212 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 144 from 212, we get 68.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 687 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 687 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 39.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 329.0
Deduct 648 from 687 and we're left with 39.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 397 / 72

Going ahead to step 6:
72 goes into 397 5 times with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3295.0
Subtract 360 from 397 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
370 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3295.5
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 360 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
72 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3295.51
If we take 72 away from 100, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 72 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3295.513
Subtract 216 from 280 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3295.5138
Subtracting 576 from 640 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 11:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3295.51388
Subtracting 576 from 640 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3295.51388 and a remainder of 6.4e-05.
