987049 ÷ 78 
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 987049.

Advancing to step 1:
78 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
78 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 98 to get 20.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 207 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
207 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 51.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 156 away from 207, we end up with 51.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 510 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
510 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 468 from 510.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 424 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 424 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1265.0
If we subtract 390 from 424, we get 34.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 349 / 78

Step 6:
78 can be fit into 349 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12654.0
Subtract 312 from 349 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.

Step 7:
The number 78 fits into 370 4 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12654.4
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 312 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 580 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12654.47
Deduct 546 from 580 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
78 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12654.474
Deduct 312 from 340 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
280 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12654.4743
If we take 234 away from 280, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 460 by 78, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12654.47435
If we subtract 390 from 460, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 700 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12654.474358
If we take 624 away from 700, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 78 fits into 760 9 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12654.4743589
If we take 702 away from 760, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
78 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12654.47435897
If we take 546 away from 580, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12654.47435897 with a remaining 3.4e-08.
