724042 ÷ 78 
We want to figure out the number of times 724042 can be divided by 78.

Going ahead to step 1:
78 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 78

On to step 2:
78 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 724 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
78 can be fit into 724 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 702 from 724, we get 22.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 220 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 220 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 92.0
Subtract 156 from 220 to get 64.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 644 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
78 goes into 644 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 928.0
Deduct 624 from 644 and we're left with 20.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 202 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
78 can be fit into 202 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9282.0
Deduct 156 from 202 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 460 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9282.5
If we subtract 390 from 460, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 700 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9282.58
Subtract 624 from 700 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
760 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 58.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9282.589
Subtract 702 from 760 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 580 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9282.5897
If we subtract 546 from 580, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 11:
78 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9282.58974
Subtract 312 from 340 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 12:
78 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9282.589743
Subtract 234 from 280 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 460 by 78, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9282.5897435
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 390 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
78 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 76.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9282.58974358
If we subtract 624 from 700, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 9282.58974358, with a leftover of 7.6e-08.
