Let's divide 958781 by 78
We want to divide 958781 by 78.

On to step 1:
78 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 95 / 78

Step 2:
78 can be fit into 95 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 78 from 95 and we're left with 17.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 178 / 78

On to step 3:
If we divide 178 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 156 from 178 to get 22.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 227 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
78 goes into 227 2 times with a remainder of 71.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 156 from 227.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 718 / 78

Step 5:
78 goes into 718 9 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1229.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 702 from 718.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 161 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
161 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12292.0
Deduct 156 from 161 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
78 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12292.0
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 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:
500 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12292.06
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12292.064
If we take 312 away from 320, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
78 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12292.0641
Subtract 78 from 80 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 20 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12292.0641
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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12292.064102
If we take 156 away from 200, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 78 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12292.0641025
If we subtract 390 from 440, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12292.06410256
Deduct 468 from 500 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12292.06410256 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
