15969244 divided by 278 
Our goal is to divide 15969244 by 278.

Advancing to step 1:
278 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 278

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 278

On to step 3:
278 can be fit into 159 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 159.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 159 to get 159.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 159 and continue with: 1596 / 278

Step 4:
When dividing 1596 by 278, we get 5 with a remainder of 206.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 1390 from 1596 and we're left with 206.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 206 and continue: 2069 / 278

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 2069 by 278, we get 7 and a remainder of 123.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we take 1946 away from 2069, we end up with 123.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 123, then carry on: 1232 / 278

Advancing to step 6:
278 goes into 1232 4 times with a remainder of 120.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 574.0
The remainder is 120 after subtracting 1112 from 1232.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 120, then repeat: 1204 / 278

Going ahead to step 7:
278 can be fit into 1204 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 92.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5744.0
If we subtract 1112 from 1204, we get 92.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 92 and continue with: 924 / 278

On to step 8:
If we divide 924 by 278, we get 3 and a remainder of 90.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 57443.0
Subtract 834 from 924 to get 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 900 by 278, we get 3 with a remainder of 66.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57443.3
Subtracting 834 from 900 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
660 divided by 278 is 2 with a remainder of 104.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57443.32
Subtracting 556 from 660 leaves us with 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 1040 by 278, we get 3 with a remainder of 206.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 57443.323
The remainder is 206 after subtracting 834 from 1040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
2060 divided by 278 is 7 with a remainder of 114.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 57443.3237
Subtracting 1946 from 2060 leaves us with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
278 goes into 1140 4 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57443.32374
If we subtract 1112 from 1140, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
278 can be fit into 280 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57443.323741
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 278 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 20 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57443.323741
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 200 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 200.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57443.323741
Deduct 0 from 200 and we're left with 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 57443.323741 with a balance of 2e-07.
