We're dividing 431833 by 78 
Our goal is to divide 431833 by 78.

Going ahead to step 1:
78 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 78 fits into 43 0 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 43 to get 43.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 431 / 78

On to step 3:
431 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 41.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 390 from 431 and we're left with 41.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 418 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
418 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 390 from 418.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 283 / 78

On to step 5:
283 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 49.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 553.0
Deduct 234 from 283 and we're left with 49.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 493 / 78

Let's proceed to step 6:
78 goes into 493 6 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5536.0
Deduct 468 from 493 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
250 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5536.3
Subtract 234 from 250 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
160 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5536.32
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5536.32
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
400 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5536.3205
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 390 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
78 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5536.32051
If we subtract 78 from 100, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 220 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5536.320512
Subtract 156 from 220 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 13:
78 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5536.3205128
Subtract 624 from 640 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5536.32051282
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5536.32051282 and a remainder of 4e-09.
