Let's divide 142678 by 1
We want to figure out the number of times 142678 can be divided by 1.

Step 1:
1 can be fit into 1 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 1 from 1 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 1

Step 2:
4 divided by 1 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 4 away from 4, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 1

Going ahead to step 3:
2 divided by 1 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142.0
If we take 2 away from 2, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 1

Let's proceed to step 4:
6 divided by 1 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1426.0
Subtract 6 from 6 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 1

Step 5:
If we divide 7 by 1, we get 7 and a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14267.0
Subtracting 7 from 7 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 1

Advancing to step 6:
1 goes into 8 8 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 142678.0
Deduct 8 from 8 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142678.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 142678.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 142678.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
