Let's divide 311196 by 78
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 311196.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 311 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
78 goes into 311 3 times with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 234 away from 311, we end up with 77.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 77, then repeat: 771 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
78 can be fit into 771 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 702 from 771 leaves us with 69.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 69, then repeat: 699 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 699 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 75.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 398.0
Subtracting 624 from 699 leaves us with 75.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 75, then carry on: 756 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
756 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3989.0
If we subtract 702 from 756, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
78 can be fit into 540 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3989.6
If we take 468 away from 540, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 720 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3989.69
Subtracting 702 from 720 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3989.692
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 240 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3989.6923
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 234 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 78 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3989.6923
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 600 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3989.692307
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 546 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 540 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3989.6923076
Deduct 468 from 540 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3989.69230769
Subtracting 702 from 720 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3989.69230769, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
