Let's divide 42994234 by 978
We want to divide 42994234 by 978.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 978

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 978 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 0 from 42.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 978

Going ahead to step 3:
978 can be fit into 429 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 429.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 429, we end up with 429.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 429, then repeat: 4299 / 978

Moving on to step 4:
4299 divided by 978 is 4 with a remainder of 387.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 3912 from 4299 leaves us with 387.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 387, then repeat: 3874 / 978

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 3874 by 978, we get 3 with a remainder of 940.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we take 2934 away from 3874, we end up with 940.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 940 and repeat the process: 9402 / 978

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 9402 by 978, we get 9 and a remainder of 600.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 439.0
Deduct 8802 from 9402 and we're left with 600.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 600, then repeat: 6003 / 978

On to step 7:
The number 978 fits into 6003 6 times, leaving a remainder of 135.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4396.0
The remainder is 135 after subtracting 5868 from 6003.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 135, then repeat: 1354 / 978

Let's proceed to step 8:
1354 divided by 978 is 1 with a remainder of 376.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43961.0
The remainder is 376 after subtracting 978 from 1354.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
978 can be fit into 3760 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 826.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 43961.3
Deduct 2934 from 3760 and we're left with 826.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 8260 by 978, we get 8 with a remainder of 436.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43961.38
Deduct 7824 from 8260 and we're left with 436.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
978 can be fit into 4360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 448.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43961.384
If we subtract 3912 from 4360, we get 448.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 4480 by 978, we get 4 with a remainder of 568.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43961.3844
Deduct 3912 from 4480 and we're left with 568.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5680, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 43961.3844 and a remainder of 0.00568.
