Let's divide 411272 by 78
We want to figure out the number of times 411272 can be divided by 78.

On to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 78

Step 2:
If we divide 41 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 41.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 41, we get 41.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 411 / 78

On to step 3:
78 can be fit into 411 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 390 from 411.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 212 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 212 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we subtract 156 from 212, we get 56.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 56 and continue: 567 / 78

Step 5:
78 can be fit into 567 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 527.0
If we subtract 546 from 567, we get 21.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 212 / 78

On to step 6:
78 can be fit into 212 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5272.0
If we take 156 away from 212, 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.

On to step 7:
78 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5272.7
If we take 546 away from 560, we end up 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:
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: 5272.71
Subtract 78 from 140 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 78 fits into 620 7 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5272.717
If we take 546 away from 620, we end up 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 740 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5272.7179
If we take 702 away from 740, we end up 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.

Step 11:
The number 78 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5272.71794
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 312 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 12:
680 divided by 78 is 8 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5272.717948
Subtract 624 from 680 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 78 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5272.7179487
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 140 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5272.71794871
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.

Our division results in 5272.71794871 with a remaining 6.2e-08.
