We divide 78887278 by 473
Our goal is to divide 78887278 by 473.

Let's proceed to step 1:
473 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 473

Advancing to step 2:
473 can be fit into 78 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 78, we get 78.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 788 / 473

Moving on to step 3:
473 goes into 788 1 times with a remainder of 315.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 473 from 788 to get 315.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 315, then repeat: 3158 / 473

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 3158 by 473, we get 6 and a remainder of 320.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 2838 away from 3158, we end up with 320.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 320 and continue with: 3207 / 473

Let's proceed to step 5:
473 goes into 3207 6 times with a remainder of 369.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166.0
If we subtract 2838 from 3207, we get 369.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 369, then repeat: 3692 / 473

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 3692 by 473, we get 7 with a remainder of 381.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1667.0
Deduct 3311 from 3692 and we're left with 381.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 381, then repeat: 3817 / 473

Moving on to step 7:
473 can be fit into 3817 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16678.0
Subtract 3784 from 3817 to get 33.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 338 / 473

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 473 fits into 338 0 times, leaving a remainder of 338.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 166780.0
Deduct 0 from 338 and we're left with 338.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 3380 by 473, we get 7 and a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 166780.7
If we subtract 3311 from 3380, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 473 fits into 690 1 times, leaving a remainder of 217.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166780.71
Deduct 473 from 690 and we're left with 217.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2170, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
2170 divided by 473 is 4 with a remainder of 278.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 166780.714
If we take 1892 away from 2170, we end up with 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 473 fits into 2780 5 times, leaving a remainder of 415.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166780.7145
Subtracting 2365 from 2780 leaves us with 415.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4150, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 4150 by 473, we get 8 with a remainder of 366.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 166780.71458
Subtracting 3784 from 4150 leaves us with 366.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
3660 divided by 473 is 7 with a remainder of 349.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 166780.714587
Deduct 3311 from 3660 and we're left with 349.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 3490 by 473, we get 7 with a remainder of 179.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 166780.7145877
Subtract 3311 from 3490 to get 179.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1790, and continue the process.

The final result is 166780.7145877 with a remainder of 1.79e-06.
