Let's divide 883841 by 78
Our goal is to divide 883841 by 78.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 88 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 10.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 88 to get 10.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 103 / 78

Moving on to step 3:
103 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 78 from 103 to get 25.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 258 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
258 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 113.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 234 from 258.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 244 / 78

On to step 5:
78 goes into 244 3 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1133.0
Subtracting 234 from 244 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 101 / 78

Step 6:
101 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11331.0
Subtract 78 from 101 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
78 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11331.2
Subtract 156 from 230 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
78 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11331.29
Subtracting 702 from 740 leaves us 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 9:
380 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11331.294
Deduct 312 from 380 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
78 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11331.2948
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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 560 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11331.29487
Deduct 546 from 560 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
78 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11331.294871
Subtracting 78 from 140 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
78 goes into 620 7 times with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11331.2948717
Subtract 546 from 620 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
740 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11331.29487179
Subtract 702 from 740 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 11331.29487179 with a balance of 3.8e-08.
