We divide 57747 by 78
Our goal is to divide 57747 by 78.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
78 goes into 57 0 times with a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 57, we get 57.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 577 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 577 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 546 from 577 to get 31.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 314 / 78

Step 4:
314 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 74.0
Deduct 312 from 314 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 78

On to step 5:
If we divide 27 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 740.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
78 can be fit into 270 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 740.3
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 234 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
78 goes into 360 4 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 740.34
If we subtract 312 from 360, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 78 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 740.346
Subtract 468 from 480 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
78 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 740.3461
Subtract 78 from 120 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 78 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 740.34615
If we take 390 away from 420, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
300 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 740.346153
If we subtract 234 from 300, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
78 goes into 660 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 740.3461538
Subtract 624 from 660 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
360 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 740.34615384
Subtracting 312 from 360 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 740.34615384 with a remainder of 4.8e-08.
