277164 ÷ 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 277164.

Step 1:
2 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
78 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 277 / 78

Let's proceed to step 3:
78 can be fit into 277 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 234 from 277 to get 43.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 431 / 78

On to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 431 5 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 390 from 431, we get 41.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 416 / 78

Step 5:
78 goes into 416 5 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 355.0
If we subtract 390 from 416, we get 26.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 264 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
264 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3553.0
Subtracting 234 from 264 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 78 fits into 300 3 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3553.3
If we take 234 away from 300, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 660 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3553.38
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.

Advancing to step 9:
78 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3553.384
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 312 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 480 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3553.3846
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 120 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3553.38461
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 78 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 420 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3553.384615
Subtract 390 from 420 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 78 fits into 300 3 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3553.3846153
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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 660 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3553.38461538
Subtracting 624 from 660 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 3553.38461538 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
