Let's divide 12896 by 78
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 12896.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 12 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 12, we end up with 12.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 128 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 128 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 78 from 128.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 509 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 509 6 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 468 from 509 leaves us with 41.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 416 / 78

On to step 5:
If we divide 416 by 78, we get 5 and a remainder of 26.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 165.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 390 from 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
78 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 165.3
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 234 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 7:
260 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 165.33
If we subtract 234 from 260, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 165.33, with a leftover of 0.026.
