We look at the division of 143482 by 78 
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 143482.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
78 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 143 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 143 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 78 from 143 leaves us with 65.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 654 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 654 8 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 624 from 654.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 308 / 78

Step 5:
78 can be fit into 308 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 183.0
Deduct 234 from 308 and we're left with 74.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 742 / 78

Step 6:
The number 78 fits into 742 9 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1839.0
Subtracting 702 from 742 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 400 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1839.5
Subtract 390 from 400 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
100 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1839.51
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
220 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1839.512
If we subtract 156 from 220, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
78 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1839.5128
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 624 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
160 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1839.51282
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
40 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1839.51282
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 78 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1839.5128205
If we take 390 away from 400, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
100 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1839.51282051
If we subtract 78 from 100, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1839.51282051 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
