1248769 ÷ 978 
We're looking to find how many times 978 goes into 1248769.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 978

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 12 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 124 / 978

Going ahead to step 3:
124 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 124.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 124 to get 124.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 124, then carry on: 1248 / 978

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 978 fits into 1248 1 times, leaving a remainder of 270.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 270 after subtracting 978 from 1248.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 270, then carry on: 2707 / 978

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 2707 by 978, we get 2 with a remainder of 751.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 751 after subtracting 1956 from 2707.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 751 and continue with: 7516 / 978

Moving on to step 6:
978 can be fit into 7516 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 670.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 127.0
If we take 6846 away from 7516, we end up with 670.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 670, then carry on: 6709 / 978

Moving on to step 7:
The number 978 fits into 6709 6 times, leaving a remainder of 841.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1276.0
If we subtract 5868 from 6709, we get 841.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
978 can be fit into 8410 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 586.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1276.8
The remainder is 586 after subtracting 7824 from 8410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
978 goes into 5860 5 times with a remainder of 970.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1276.85
If we take 4890 away from 5860, we end up with 970.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
978 can be fit into 9700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 898.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1276.859
If we take 8802 away from 9700, we end up with 898.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8980, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 8980 by 978, we get 9 and a remainder of 178.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1276.8599
The remainder is 178 after subtracting 8802 from 8980.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

The final result is 1276.8599 with a remainder of 0.00178.
