We divide 78904 by 6
We want to figure out the number of times 78904 can be divided by 6.

On to step 1:
The number 6 fits into 7 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 6 from 7 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 6

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 6, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 18 from 18, we get 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 6

Advancing to step 3:
The number 6 fits into 9 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 131.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 6 from 9.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 30 / 6

Going ahead to step 4:
6 can be fit into 30 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1315.0
Subtracting 30 from 30 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 6

Going ahead to step 5:
6 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13150.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 40 by 6, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13150.6
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 6 fits into 40 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13150.66
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 13150.66 with a remainder of 0.004.
