We divide 72264 by 78
We want to divide 72264 by 78.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 72 leaves us with 72.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 722 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 722 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 702 away from 722, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 206 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
78 goes into 206 2 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 92.0
If we take 156 away from 206, we end up with 50.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 504 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
78 goes into 504 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 926.0
If we take 468 away from 504, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 360 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 926.4
Subtracting 312 from 360 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
78 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 926.46
Deduct 468 from 480 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 120 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 926.461
Subtract 78 from 120 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 420 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 926.4615
If we subtract 390 from 420, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 926.46153
If we subtract 234 from 300, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
78 can be fit into 660 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 926.461538
Subtract 624 from 660 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 78 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 926.4615384
Subtract 312 from 360 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 78 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 926.46153846
If we take 468 away from 480, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 926.46153846 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
