461593 divided by 78 
Our goal is to divide 461593 by 78.

Let's proceed to step 1:
78 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 46 / 78

Moving on to step 2:
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: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 46 leaves us with 46.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 461 / 78

Step 3:
The number 78 fits into 461 5 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 390 from 461 leaves us with 71.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 715 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
715 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtract 702 from 715 to get 13.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 139 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 139 1 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 591.0
Subtract 78 from 139 to get 61.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 613 / 78

Let's proceed to step 6:
78 can be fit into 613 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5917.0
If we take 546 away from 613, we end up with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
78 goes into 670 8 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5917.8
Subtracting 624 from 670 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
78 can be fit into 460 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5917.85
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 9:
When dividing 700 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5917.858
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 10:
78 can be fit into 760 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5917.8589
If we take 702 away from 760, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
78 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5917.85897
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.

On to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5917.858974
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 78 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5917.8589743
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 234 from 280.
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 14:
If we divide 460 by 78, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5917.85897435
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 5917.85897435 with a balance of 7e-08.
