We divide 74251 by 78
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 74251.

Step 1:
The number 78 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 74, then repeat: 742 / 78

On to step 3:
If we divide 742 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 40.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 702 from 742.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 405 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 405 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 95.0
If we subtract 390 from 405, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 151 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
151 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 73.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 951.0
If we take 78 away from 151, we end up with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
730 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 951.9
If we take 702 away from 730, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 951.93
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.

Advancing to step 8:
78 can be fit into 460 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 951.935
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.

On to step 9:
78 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 951.9358
Subtract 624 from 700 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
760 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 951.93589
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 702 from 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 580 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 951.935897
Subtracting 546 from 580 leaves us with 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 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 951.9358974
Subtracting 312 from 340 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
When dividing 280 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 951.93589743
If we subtract 234 from 280, we 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.

The final result is 951.93589743 with a remainder of 4.6e-08.
