967142 ÷ 78 
We want to divide 967142 by 78.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 96 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
78 can be fit into 96 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 78 from 96 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 187 / 78

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 187 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 31.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 156 from 187 and we're left with 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
78 goes into 311 3 times with a remainder of 77.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 123.0
Deduct 234 from 311 and we're left with 77.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 77, then repeat: 774 / 78

Step 5:
774 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 72.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1239.0
Deduct 702 from 774 and we're left with 72.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 722 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 722 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12399.0
Deduct 702 from 722 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12399.2
If we subtract 156 from 200, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 440 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12399.25
If we take 390 away from 440, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 78 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12399.256
If we subtract 468 from 500, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 320 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12399.2564
Subtracting 312 from 320 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 80 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12399.25641
Deduct 78 from 80 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12399.25641
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12399.2564102
Subtract 156 from 200 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12399.25641025
Subtract 390 from 440 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12399.25641025 with a balance of 5e-08.
