We're dividing 334731 by 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 334731.

Moving on to step 1:
78 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 33 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
33 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 33, we get 33.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 334 / 78

On to step 3:
When dividing 334 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 312 from 334.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
78 goes into 227 2 times with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtract 156 from 227 to get 71.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 713 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 713 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 429.0
If we take 702 away from 713, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 111 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
111 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4291.0
If we take 78 away from 111, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 330 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4291.4
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 312 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 78 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4291.42
If we take 156 away from 180, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
78 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4291.423
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
78 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4291.423
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 11:
600 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4291.42307
Subtract 546 from 600 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
78 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4291.423076
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 468 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 13:
78 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4291.4230769
Deduct 702 from 720 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4291.42307692
Subtracting 156 from 180 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4291.42307692 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
