Let's divide 915914 by 78
We want to divide 915914 by 78.

Step 1:
The number 78 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 91 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
91 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 78 from 91.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 135 / 78

Step 3:
When dividing 135 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 78 from 135 leaves us with 57.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 579 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 579 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 117.0
Subtract 546 from 579 to get 33.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 331 / 78

On to step 5:
78 can be fit into 331 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1174.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 312 from 331.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 194 / 78

Advancing to step 6:
194 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 38.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11742.0
Subtract 156 from 194 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 380 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11742.4
If we take 312 away from 380, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 680 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11742.48
If we take 624 away from 680, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 560 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11742.487
If we take 546 away from 560, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
140 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 62.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11742.4871
If we subtract 78 from 140, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 620 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 74.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11742.48717
Deduct 546 from 620 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
740 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11742.487179
Subtracting 702 from 740 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 78 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11742.4871794
Deduct 312 from 380 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 680 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11742.48717948
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 624 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11742.48717948 with a remaining 5.6e-08.
