We're dividing 78434372 by 460 
We want to divide 78434372 by 460.

On to step 1:
The number 460 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 460

Advancing to step 2:
460 can be fit into 78 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 78 to get 78.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 784 / 460

On to step 3:
784 divided by 460 is 1 with a remainder of 324.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 460 from 784 to get 324.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 324, then repeat: 3243 / 460

Step 4:
When dividing 3243 by 460, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 3220 away from 3243, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 234 / 460

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 234 by 460, we get 0 and a remainder of 234.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 170.0
If we take 0 away from 234, we end up with 234.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 234 and continue: 2343 / 460

Let's proceed to step 6:
460 goes into 2343 5 times with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1705.0
Deduct 2300 from 2343 and we're left with 43.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 437 / 460

Let's proceed to step 7:
460 can be fit into 437 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 437.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17050.0
Subtract 0 from 437 to get 437.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 437 and repeat the process: 4372 / 460

On to step 8:
The number 460 fits into 4372 9 times, leaving a remainder of 232.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170509.0
Deduct 4140 from 4372 and we're left with 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
460 can be fit into 2320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 170509.5
If we subtract 2300 from 2320, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
460 goes into 200 0 times with a remainder of 200.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170509.5
If we subtract 0 from 200, we get 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Step 11:
460 can be fit into 2000 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 160.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 170509.504
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 1840 from 2000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
1600 divided by 460 is 3 with a remainder of 220.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170509.5043
If we subtract 1380 from 1600, we get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 2200 by 460, we get 4 and a remainder of 360.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170509.50434
Subtracting 1840 from 2200 leaves us with 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
3600 divided by 460 is 7 with a remainder of 380.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 170509.504347
Deduct 3220 from 3600 and we're left with 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
3800 divided by 460 is 8 with a remainder of 120.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 170509.5043478
If we take 3680 away from 3800, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
1200 divided by 460 is 2 with a remainder of 280.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170509.50434782
Subtracting 920 from 1200 leaves us with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Our division results in 170509.50434782 with a remaining 2.8e-07.
