We're dividing 720726 by 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 720726.

Let's proceed to step 1:
78 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 72 and we're left with 72.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 720 / 78

Step 3:
The number 78 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 702 from 720 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 187 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
78 goes into 187 2 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 92.0
If we subtract 156 from 187, we get 31.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 312 / 78

On to step 5:
312 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 924.0
Subtracting 312 from 312 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 6 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 6 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9240.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9240.0
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 600 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9240.07
Deduct 546 from 600 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
78 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 72.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9240.076
Deduct 468 from 540 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
78 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9240.0769
If we take 702 away from 720, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9240.07692
Subtract 156 from 180 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 240 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9240.076923
Subtract 234 from 240 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
78 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9240.076923
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
78 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 54.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9240.07692307
Deduct 546 from 600 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 9240.07692307, and the remainder is 5.4e-08.
