711457 ÷ 78 
We want to divide 711457 by 78.

Step 1:
The number 78 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 71 / 78

Step 2:
78 can be fit into 71 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 71 leaves us with 71.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 711 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 711 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 702 from 711 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 94 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 94 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 91.0
Deduct 78 from 94 and we're left with 16.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 165 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
78 can be fit into 165 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 912.0
If we take 156 away from 165, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
78 can be fit into 97 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9121.0
If we subtract 78 from 97, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9121.2
Subtract 156 from 190 to get 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 8:
340 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9121.24
Subtracting 312 from 340 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 9:
78 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9121.243
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.

On to step 10:
78 goes into 460 5 times with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9121.2435
Deduct 390 from 460 and we're left 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.

Step 11:
78 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 9121.24358
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 624 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
760 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 58.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9121.243589
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 702 from 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 580 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9121.2435897
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.

Advancing to step 14:
78 goes into 340 4 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9121.24358974
Deduct 312 from 340 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 9121.24358974 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
