We're dividing 862717 by 78 
Our goal is to divide 862717 by 78.

Step 1:
78 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
78 goes into 86 1 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 78 from 86, we get 8.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 82 / 78

Step 3:
82 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 78 away from 82, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 47 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 110.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 471 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 471 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1106.0
Subtract 468 from 471 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 78 fits into 37 0 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11060.0
Deduct 0 from 37 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
78 goes into 370 4 times with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11060.4
Subtracting 312 from 370 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 580 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11060.47
Subtracting 546 from 580 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 78 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11060.474
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 312 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 78 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11060.4743
Subtract 234 from 280 to 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 11:
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: 11060.47435
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.

Step 12:
When dividing 700 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11060.474358
If we subtract 624 from 700, we 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
78 goes into 760 9 times with a remainder of 58.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11060.4743589
If we subtract 702 from 760, we 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.

On to step 14:
580 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11060.47435897
If we subtract 546 from 580, we 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.

The final outcome is 11060.47435897, with a leftover of 3.4e-08.
