78541877 ÷ 52 
Let's see how many times 52 fits into 78541877.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 52

On to step 2:
52 goes into 78 1 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 52 from 78.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 52

Moving on to step 3:
265 divided by 52 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 260 from 265 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 52

Advancing to step 4:
54 divided by 52 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 151.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 52 from 54.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
21 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1510.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 218 / 52

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 218 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15104.0
Subtract 208 from 218 to get 10.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 52

Step 7:
If we divide 107 by 52, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 151042.0
Deduct 104 from 107 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 52

Let's proceed to step 8:
37 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 37.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1510420.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 0 from 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
52 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1510420.7
Subtracting 364 from 370 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
52 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1510420.71
If we subtract 52 from 60, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
52 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1510420.711
If we take 52 away from 80, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final result is 1510420.711 with a remainder of 0.0028.
