Let's divide 432797 by 78
We want to divide 432797 by 78.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
78 goes into 43 0 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 43 to get 43.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 432 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 432 5 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 390 away from 432, we end up with 42.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 427 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
427 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we subtract 390 from 427, we get 37.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 379 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
78 can be fit into 379 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 554.0
If we subtract 312 from 379, we get 67.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 67 and continue: 677 / 78

On to step 6:
When dividing 677 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 53.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5548.0
If we take 624 away from 677, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
78 goes into 530 6 times with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5548.6
Subtract 468 from 530 to get 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 8:
620 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 74.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5548.67
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 546 from 620.
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 9:
78 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5548.679
If we subtract 702 from 740, we get 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 10:
78 goes into 380 4 times with a remainder of 68.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5548.6794
If we subtract 312 from 380, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
680 divided by 78 is 8 with a remainder of 56.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5548.67948
If we take 624 away from 680, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 560 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5548.679487
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 546 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 140 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 62.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5548.6794871
If we take 78 away from 140, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
78 can be fit into 620 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5548.67948717
Deduct 546 from 620 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 5548.67948717 and a remainder of 7.4e-08.
