Let's divide 493671 by 78
We want to divide 493671 by 78.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 49, we get 49.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 493 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 493 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 468 from 493, we get 25.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 256 / 78

Step 4:
If we divide 256 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 63.0
Subtract 234 from 256 to get 22.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 227 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
227 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 71.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 632.0
Subtract 156 from 227 to get 71.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 711 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
78 can be fit into 711 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6329.0
Subtract 702 from 711 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
78 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6329.1
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 78 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
78 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6329.11
If we take 78 away from 120, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6329.11 and a remainder of 0.042.
