471384 divided by 78 
We want to figure out the number of times 471384 can be divided by 78.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 47 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 471 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 471 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 468 away from 471, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we subtract 0 from 33, we get 33.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 338 / 78

Step 5:
If we divide 338 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 604.0
Subtract 312 from 338 to get 26.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 264 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
264 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 30.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6043.0
Subtract 234 from 264 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 300 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6043.3
Subtracting 234 from 300 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 78 fits into 660 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6043.38
If we subtract 624 from 660, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
78 goes into 360 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6043.384
Deduct 312 from 360 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
78 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6043.3846
If we take 468 away from 480, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6043.38461
Subtract 78 from 120 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6043.384615
Deduct 390 from 420 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
78 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6043.3846153
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 234 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
78 goes into 660 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6043.38461538
If we take 624 away from 660, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6043.38461538 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
