293959 divided by 78 
We want to divide 293959 by 78.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 29 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 293 / 78

Going ahead to step 3:
293 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 234 away from 293, we end up with 59.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 599 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
78 goes into 599 7 times with a remainder of 53.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we subtract 546 from 599, we get 53.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 53 and continue with: 535 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
535 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 376.0
If we take 468 away from 535, we end up with 67.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 679 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 679 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3768.0
Subtract 624 from 679 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
550 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3768.7
If we take 546 away from 550, 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 40 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3768.7
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3768.705
Subtracting 390 from 400 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
78 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3768.7051
Subtract 78 from 100 to 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 11:
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: 3768.70512
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 156 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
78 goes into 640 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3768.705128
Deduct 624 from 640 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 13:
78 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3768.7051282
Subtracting 156 from 160 leaves us 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.

Step 14:
40 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3768.7051282
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final result is 3768.7051282 with a remainder of 4e-08.
