Here are the solutions for the long division problems.

Problem (2): $5 \overline{)72}$

Divide 7 by 5.
The quotient is 1.
$\begin{array}{r} 1 \\ 5 \overline{)72} \\ -5 \downarrow \\ \hline 2 \end{array}$
Bring down the next digit, 2, to make 22.
$\begin{array}{r} 1 \\ 5 \overline{)72} \\ -5 \downarrow \\ \hline 22 \end{array}$
Divide 22 by 5.
The quotient is 4.
$\begin{array}{r} 14 \\ 5 \overline{)72} \\ -5 \downarrow \\ \hline 22 \\ -20 \\ \hline 2 \end{array}$
The quotient is 14 and the remainder is 2.

The answer is $\boxed{\text{14 R 2}}$ .

Problem (5): $3 \overline{)65}$
Divide 6 by 3.
The quotient is 2.
$\begin{array}{r} 2 \\ 3 \overline{)65} \\ -6 \downarrow \\ \hline 0 \end{array}$
Bring down the next digit, 5, to make 05 (or 5).
$\begin{array}{r} 2 \\ 3 \overline{)65} \\ -6 \downarrow \\ \hline 05 \end{array}$
Divide 5 by 3.
The quotient is 1.
$\begin{array}{r} 21 \\ 3 \overline{)65} \\ -6 \downarrow \\ \hline 05 \\ -3 \\ \hline 2 \end{array}$
The quotient is 21 and the remainder is 2.

The answer is $\boxed{\text{21 R 2}}$ .
