We divide 103978 by 44
We want to divide 103978 by 44.

Advancing to step 1:
44 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 10 / 44

Let's proceed to step 2:
44 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 103 / 44

Going ahead to step 3:
103 divided by 44 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 88 away from 103, we end up with 15.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 159 / 44

Let's proceed to step 4:
44 can be fit into 159 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 132 away from 159, we end up with 27.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 277 / 44

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 277 by 44, we get 6 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 236.0
If we take 264 away from 277, we end up with 13.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 138 / 44

Step 6:
When dividing 138 by 44, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2363.0
Subtract 132 from 138 to get 6.
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 7:
44 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2363.1
If we take 44 away from 60, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 44, we get 3 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2363.13
If we subtract 132 from 160, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 280 by 44, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2363.136
Subtracting 264 from 280 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 44 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2363.1363
Subtracting 132 from 160 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.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 280 by 44, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2363.13636
Subtract 264 from 280 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 44, we get 3 with a remainder of 28.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2363.136363
Subtracting 132 from 160 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.

On to step 13:
280 divided by 44 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2363.1363636
Subtracting 264 from 280 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 44, we get 3 with a remainder of 28.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2363.13636363
Subtract 132 from 160 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2363.13636363, with a leftover of 2.8e-08.
