124846 ÷ 78 
We want to divide 124846 by 78.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 78

On to step 2:
78 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 124 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 124 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 78 away from 124, we end up with 46.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 468 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 468 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 468 from 468.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 78

Step 5:
If we divide 4 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 160.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 78

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1600.0
Subtracting 0 from 46 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 460 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1600.5
Subtract 390 from 460 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 700 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1600.58
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 760 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1600.589
Subtract 702 from 760 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
580 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1600.5897
Deduct 546 from 580 and we're left 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.

Step 11:
78 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1600.58974
If we subtract 312 from 340, we get 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:
If we divide 280 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1600.589743
If we subtract 234 from 280, 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
460 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1600.5897435
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 390 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
78 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1600.58974358
Subtracting 624 from 700 leaves us 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.

The final result is 1600.58974358 with a remainder of 7.6e-08.
