500174 divided by 78 
Our goal is to divide 500174 by 78.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 78

On to step 2:
78 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 500 / 78

Step 3:
500 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 468 from 500.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 321 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 321 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtract 312 from 321 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 78

On to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 641.0
If we take 78 away from 97, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 194 / 78

On to step 6:
The number 78 fits into 194 2 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6412.0
Subtract 156 from 194 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
78 goes into 380 4 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6412.4
If we take 312 away from 380, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
78 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6412.48
Subtract 624 from 680 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
560 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6412.487
Deduct 546 from 560 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
78 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6412.4871
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 78 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 620 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6412.48717
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 546 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 12:
78 can be fit into 740 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6412.487179
Deduct 702 from 740 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 13:
380 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6412.4871794
If we take 312 away from 380, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
78 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6412.48717948
Subtracting 624 from 680 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6412.48717948 with a remaining 5.6e-08.
