Let's divide 896087 by 78
Our goal is to divide 896087 by 78.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 89 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 89 to get 11.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 116 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
78 can be fit into 116 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 78 from 116 and we're left with 38.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 380 / 78

Step 4:
78 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114.0
If we subtract 312 from 380, we get 68.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 688 / 78

On to step 5:
If we divide 688 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1148.0
Subtracting 624 from 688 leaves us with 64.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 64 and continue: 647 / 78

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 647 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11488.0
Subtract 624 from 647 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 78 fits into 230 2 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11488.2
If we subtract 156 from 230, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
740 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11488.29
Deduct 702 from 740 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 380 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11488.294
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 312 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 680 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11488.2948
Subtract 624 from 680 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
78 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11488.29487
Subtract 546 from 560 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
78 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11488.294871
Deduct 78 from 140 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 620 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 74.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11488.2948717
Subtracting 546 from 620 leaves us with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
78 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11488.29487179
Deduct 702 from 740 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11488.29487179 with a remaining 3.8e-08.
