278706 divided by 24 
We're looking to find how many times 24 goes into 278706.

On to step 1:
24 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 24

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 24, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 24 from 27 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 24

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 38 by 24, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 24 from 38, we get 14.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 147 / 24

Let's proceed to step 4:
24 can be fit into 147 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 116.0
If we subtract 144 from 147, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 24

Moving on to step 5:
The number 24 fits into 30 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1161.0
Subtract 24 from 30 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 66 / 24

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 24 fits into 66 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11612.0
If we take 48 away from 66, we end up 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 180 by 24, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11612.7
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 120 by 24, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11612.75
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 120 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
24 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11612.75
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
24 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11612.75
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11612.75 with a remaining 0.0.
