We divide 578457 by 4
Our goal is to divide 578457 by 4.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 4 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 4 from 5.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 4

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 4, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 16 from 17 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 4

Step 3:
4 goes into 18 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144.0
Subtract 16 from 18 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 4

Moving on to step 4:
4 goes into 24 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1446.0
If we subtract 24 from 24, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 5 / 4

Step 5:
If we divide 5 by 4, we get 1 and a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14461.0
If we subtract 4 from 5, we get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 4

On to step 6:
17 divided by 4 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144614.0
If we take 16 away from 17, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 4 fits into 10 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144614.2
Subtract 8 from 10 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 4 fits into 20 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144614.25
If we subtract 20 from 20, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
4 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144614.25
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 144614.25
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 144614.25, and the remainder is 0.0.
