Let's divide 872078 by 78
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 872078.

Going ahead to step 1:
78 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 78

On to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 87 to get 9.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 92 / 78

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 92 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 78 from 92 and we're left with 14.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 140 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
The number 78 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 111.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 78 from 140.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 627 / 78

On to step 5:
78 can be fit into 627 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1118.0
If we subtract 624 from 627, we get 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 78

On to step 6:
78 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11180.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
380 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11180.4
If we take 312 away from 380, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
78 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11180.48
If we take 624 away from 680, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
78 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11180.487
If we subtract 546 from 560, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 140 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 62.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11180.4871
Subtract 78 from 140 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 78 fits into 620 7 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11180.48717
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 546 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 12:
78 can be fit into 740 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11180.487179
If we take 702 away from 740, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 380 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11180.4871794
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 312 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 680 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11180.48717948
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 624 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11180.48717948 and a remainder of 5.6e-08.
