We divide 488235 by 78
We want to figure out the number of times 488235 can be divided by 78.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 48, we get 48.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 488 / 78

Going ahead to step 3:
78 goes into 488 6 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 468 from 488, we get 20.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 202 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
78 goes into 202 2 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 62.0
Subtracting 156 from 202 leaves us with 46.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 463 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 463 5 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 625.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 390 from 463.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 73, then carry on: 735 / 78

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 735 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 33.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6259.0
Subtract 702 from 735 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 330 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6259.4
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.

On to step 8:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6259.42
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 240 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6259.423
Subtract 234 from 240 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
78 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6259.423
If we subtract 0 from 60, we 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.

Moving on to step 11:
600 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6259.42307
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 546 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
540 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6259.423076
Subtracting 468 from 540 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
78 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6259.4230769
If we subtract 702 from 720, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead 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: 6259.42307692
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.

After the division, we end up with 6259.42307692 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
