71490476 ÷ 978 
We want to figure out the number of times 71490476 can be divided by 978.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 978

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 71 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 71.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 71, we end up with 71.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 714 / 978

Step 3:
The number 978 fits into 714 0 times, leaving a remainder of 714.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 714, we get 714.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 714, then repeat: 7149 / 978

Step 4:
978 can be fit into 7149 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 303.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 6846 from 7149 to get 303.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 303 and continue with: 3030 / 978

Moving on to step 5:
The number 978 fits into 3030 3 times, leaving a remainder of 96.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
Subtracting 2934 from 3030 leaves us with 96.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 96 and continue with: 964 / 978

On to step 6:
964 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 964.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 730.0
Subtract 0 from 964 to get 964.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 964 and continue: 9647 / 978

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 9647 by 978, we get 9 and a remainder of 845.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7309.0
Subtracting 8802 from 9647 leaves us with 845.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 845 and continue: 8456 / 978

Step 8:
978 can be fit into 8456 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 632.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73098.0
If we take 7824 away from 8456, we end up with 632.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 6320 by 978, we get 6 and a remainder of 452.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73098.6
If we take 5868 away from 6320, we end up with 452.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4520, and continue the process.

Step 10:
978 can be fit into 4520 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 608.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73098.64
The remainder is 608 after subtracting 3912 from 4520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6080, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
978 can be fit into 6080 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 212.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 73098.646
Subtracting 5868 from 6080 leaves us with 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 2120 by 978, we get 2 with a remainder of 164.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73098.6462
Subtract 1956 from 2120 to get 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
978 goes into 1640 1 times with a remainder of 662.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73098.64621
Deduct 978 from 1640 and we're left with 662.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6620, and continue the process.

Step 14:
978 can be fit into 6620 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 752.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 73098.646216
If we take 5868 away from 6620, we end up with 752.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
978 goes into 7520 7 times with a remainder of 674.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73098.6462167
If we subtract 6846 from 7520, we get 674.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
978 can be fit into 6740 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 872.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73098.64621676
If we take 5868 away from 6740, we end up with 872.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 73098.64621676 with a remaining 8.72e-07.
