We divide 552460 by 78
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 552460.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 78

Moving on to step 2:
The number 78 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 55, we get 55.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 552 / 78

On to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 552 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 546 from 552 and we're left with 6.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 64 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
78 can be fit into 64 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 70.0
If we take 0 away from 64, we end up with 64.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 64, then repeat: 646 / 78

Step 5:
78 can be fit into 646 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 708.0
Subtracting 624 from 646 leaves us with 22.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 220 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 78 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7082.0
Subtract 156 from 220 to 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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 640 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7082.8
Deduct 624 from 640 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
The number 78 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7082.82
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up 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.

Step 9:
40 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7082.82
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7082.8205
Subtract 390 from 400 to get 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 11:
78 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7082.82051
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up with 22.
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 12:
220 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7082.820512
Subtract 156 from 220 to 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.

Step 13:
78 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7082.8205128
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 14:
When dividing 160 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7082.82051282
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.

Our division results in 7082.82051282 with a remaining 4e-09.
