We divide 975496 by 78
Our goal is to divide 975496 by 78.

Advancing to step 1:
9 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
78 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 97 to get 19.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 195 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
78 goes into 195 2 times with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 156 from 195 and we're left with 39.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 394 / 78

Step 4:
78 can be fit into 394 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 390 from 394.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 78

On to step 5:
When dividing 49 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1250.0
If we take 0 away from 49, we end up with 49.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 496 / 78

On to step 6:
The number 78 fits into 496 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12506.0
If we subtract 468 from 496, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
280 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12506.3
Subtract 234 from 280 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
460 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12506.35
Subtract 390 from 460 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 78 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12506.358
Subtracting 624 from 700 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 760 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12506.3589
If we take 702 away from 760, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 78 fits into 580 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12506.35897
If we subtract 546 from 580, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
78 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12506.358974
Deduct 312 from 340 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
280 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12506.3589743
Deduct 234 from 280 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
78 goes into 460 5 times with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12506.35897435
Subtracting 390 from 460 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

The final result is 12506.35897435 with a remainder of 7e-08.
