Let's divide 127726 by 78
We want to divide 127726 by 78.

Let's proceed to step 1:
78 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 78

Step 2:
12 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 127 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 127 1 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 78 from 127.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 497 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 497 by 78, we get 6 with a remainder of 29.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 468 from 497 and we're left with 29.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 292 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 292 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 58.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163.0
Subtract 234 from 292 to get 58.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 586 / 78

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 586 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1637.0
If we take 546 away from 586, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
400 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1637.5
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.

Advancing to step 8:
78 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1637.51
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 220 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 64.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1637.512
If we subtract 156 from 220, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1637.5128
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 1637.51282
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1637.51282
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.

Step 13:
The number 78 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1637.5128205
Deduct 390 from 400 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1637.51282051
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1637.51282051, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
