496923 divided by 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 496923.

Step 1:
78 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 78

Step 2:
If we divide 49 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 496 / 78

On to step 3:
496 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 468 from 496, we get 28.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 289 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 289 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 63.0
Subtracting 234 from 289 leaves us with 55.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 552 / 78

Step 5:
If we divide 552 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 637.0
Deduct 546 from 552 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 63 / 78

Step 6:
78 can be fit into 63 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6370.0
Subtract 0 from 63 to get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 630 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6370.8
If we take 624 away from 630, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6370.8
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
78 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6370.807
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 546 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
78 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6370.8076
Deduct 468 from 540 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 720 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6370.80769
If we take 702 away from 720, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6370.807692
Deduct 156 from 180 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 240 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6370.8076923
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 234 from 240.
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 14:
78 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6370.8076923
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6370.8076923 with a balance of 6e-08.
