149494 ÷ 78 
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 149494.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
78 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 149 / 78

Step 3:
78 goes into 149 1 times with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 78 away from 149, we end up with 71.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 714 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 714 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we take 702 away from 714, we end up with 12.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 129 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 129 1 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 191.0
If we subtract 78 from 129, we get 51.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 514 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 514 by 78, we get 6 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1916.0
If we subtract 468 from 514, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
78 goes into 460 5 times with a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1916.5
Subtracting 390 from 460 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 78 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1916.58
If we take 624 away from 700, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 760 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1916.589
Subtracting 702 from 760 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 10:
78 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1916.5897
If we take 546 away from 580, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 340 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1916.58974
If we take 312 away from 340, 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.

Step 12:
78 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1916.589743
Subtract 234 from 280 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
78 goes into 460 5 times with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1916.5897435
If we take 390 away from 460, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
78 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1916.58974358
Subtract 624 from 700 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1916.58974358, with a leftover of 7.6e-08.
