Let's divide 67978438 by 231
Our goal is to divide 67978438 by 231.

On to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 231, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 67 / 231

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 67 by 231, we get 0 and a remainder of 67.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 67, we end up with 67.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 679 / 231

Step 3:
231 can be fit into 679 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 217.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 462 from 679, we get 217.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 217 and continue with: 2177 / 231

Step 4:
If we divide 2177 by 231, we get 9 and a remainder of 98.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 98 after subtracting 2079 from 2177.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 98 and continue: 988 / 231

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 988 by 231, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 294.0
Subtracting 924 from 988 leaves us with 64.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 64 and repeat the process: 644 / 231

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 231 fits into 644 2 times, leaving a remainder of 182.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2942.0
Subtracting 462 from 644 leaves us with 182.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 182 and repeat the process: 1823 / 231

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 1823 by 231, we get 7 with a remainder of 206.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29427.0
The remainder is 206 after subtracting 1617 from 1823.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 206, then repeat: 2068 / 231

Advancing to step 8:
231 can be fit into 2068 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 220.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 294278.0
Subtract 1848 from 2068 to get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
231 can be fit into 2200 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 121.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 294278.9
The remainder is 121 after subtracting 2079 from 2200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 231 fits into 1210 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 294278.95
Subtract 1155 from 1210 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
550 divided by 231 is 2 with a remainder of 88.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 294278.952
If we subtract 462 from 550, we get 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
880 divided by 231 is 3 with a remainder of 187.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 294278.9523
Subtracting 693 from 880 leaves us with 187.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1870, and continue the process.

Step 13:
231 can be fit into 1870 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 294278.95238
Subtract 1848 from 1870 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.

Step 14:
When dividing 220 by 231, we get 0 with a remainder of 220.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 294278.95238
Subtract 0 from 220 to get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Step 15:
231 can be fit into 2200 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 121.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 294278.9523809
Deduct 2079 from 2200 and we're left with 121.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1210, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
231 goes into 1210 5 times with a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 294278.95238095
If we take 1155 away from 1210, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The final result is 294278.95238095 with a remainder of 5.5e-08.
