We look at the division of 116704 by 78 
We want to figure out the number of times 116704 can be divided by 78.

Let's proceed to step 1:
78 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 78

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 11 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 116 / 78

Step 3:
The number 78 fits into 116 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 116 to get 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
78 can be fit into 387 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 312 from 387, we get 75.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 75, then repeat: 750 / 78

On to step 5:
78 can be fit into 750 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 149.0
If we subtract 702 from 750, we get 48.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 484 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
484 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1496.0
If we subtract 468 from 484, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 160 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1496.2
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1496.2
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 9:
78 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1496.205
Deduct 390 from 400 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1496.2051
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 220 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1496.20512
If we subtract 156 from 220, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.205128
If we take 624 away from 640, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1496.2051282
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
78 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1496.2051282
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1496.2051282 with a remaining 4e-08.
