We're dividing 539726 by 78 
We want to divide 539726 by 78.

Step 1:
The number 78 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
78 can be fit into 53 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 53 and we're left with 53.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 539 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 539 6 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 468 from 539 leaves us with 71.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 717 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 717 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 69.0
Deduct 702 from 717 and we're left with 15.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 152 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 152 1 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 691.0
Subtract 78 from 152 to get 74.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 746 / 78

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 746 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6919.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 702 from 746.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 7:
78 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6919.5
Deduct 390 from 440 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
78 goes into 500 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6919.56
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 468 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6919.564
Subtract 312 from 320 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 78 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6919.5641
Deduct 78 from 80 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 20 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6919.5641
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6919.564102
If we subtract 156 from 200, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 440 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6919.5641025
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 390 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 14:
78 goes into 500 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6919.56410256
If we subtract 468 from 500, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final result is 6919.56410256 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
