We divide 204658 by 78
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 204658.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 20 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 20 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 204 / 78

Going ahead to step 3:
204 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 156 from 204.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 486 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 486 by 78, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 468 from 486, we get 18.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 185 / 78

Step 5:
The number 78 fits into 185 2 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 262.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 156 from 185.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 78

On to step 6:
When dividing 298 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2623.0
If we take 234 away from 298, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
78 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2623.8
Subtracting 624 from 640 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
78 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2623.82
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
40 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2623.82
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
400 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2623.8205
If we subtract 390 from 400, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 78 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2623.82051
If we subtract 78 from 100, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 220 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2623.820512
Subtract 156 from 220 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2623.8205128
If we take 624 away from 640, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 160 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2623.82051282
If we subtract 156 from 160, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2623.82051282, with a leftover of 4e-09.
