Let's divide 11847 by 78
We want to figure out the number of times 11847 can be divided by 78.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
The number 78 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 11 and we're left with 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
78 goes into 118 1 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 78 from 118 and we're left with 40.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 404 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
404 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 390 from 404 and we're left with 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 147 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 151.0
If we subtract 78 from 147, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
78 can be fit into 690 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 151.8
If we subtract 624 from 690, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 7:
660 divided by 78 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 151.88
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.

The quotient of the division is 151.88, and the remainder is 0.036.
