Let's divide 310184 by 78
Our goal is to divide 310184 by 78.

On to step 1:
78 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 78

Step 2:
78 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 310 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
78 goes into 310 3 times with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 234 away from 310, we end up with 76.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 76 and repeat the process: 761 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 761 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 702 from 761 leaves us with 59.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 598 / 78

On to step 5:
When dividing 598 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 52.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 397.0
If we subtract 546 from 598, we get 52.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 524 / 78

Step 6:
When dividing 524 by 78, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3976.0
If we take 468 away from 524, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 560 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3976.7
Deduct 546 from 560 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
78 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 62.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3976.71
If we take 78 away from 140, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 78 fits into 620 7 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3976.717
Subtracting 546 from 620 leaves us with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
78 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3976.7179
Subtracting 702 from 740 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
380 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3976.71794
Subtracting 312 from 380 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3976.717948
Subtracting 624 from 680 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
78 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3976.7179487
Deduct 546 from 560 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3976.71794871
If we subtract 78 from 140, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3976.71794871, and the remainder is 6.2e-08.
