We look at the division of 72482931 by 148 
Let's see how many times 148 fits into 72482931.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 148, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 148

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 148 fits into 72 0 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 724 / 148

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 148 fits into 724 4 times, leaving a remainder of 132.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 132 after subtracting 592 from 724.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 132 and repeat the process: 1328 / 148

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 1328 by 148, we get 8 and a remainder of 144.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtract 1184 from 1328 to get 144.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 144, then repeat: 1442 / 148

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 1442 by 148, we get 9 with a remainder of 110.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 489.0
If we take 1332 away from 1442, we end up with 110.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 110, then repeat: 1109 / 148

On to step 6:
148 can be fit into 1109 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4897.0
If we subtract 1036 from 1109, we get 73.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 73, then repeat: 733 / 148

Let's proceed to step 7:
733 divided by 148 is 4 with a remainder of 141.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48974.0
Subtract 592 from 733 to get 141.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 141 and continue with: 1411 / 148

On to step 8:
The number 148 fits into 1411 9 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 489749.0
If we take 1332 away from 1411, we end up with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 148 fits into 790 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 489749.5
If we take 740 away from 790, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 148 fits into 500 3 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 489749.53
If we subtract 444 from 500, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 560 by 148, we get 3 and a remainder of 116.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 489749.533
Subtracting 444 from 560 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 489749.533 with a remaining 0.0116.
