873187 divided by 78 
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 873187.

Let's proceed to step 1:
78 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 78

Step 2:
87 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 78 from 87 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 93 / 78

On to step 3:
When dividing 93 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 78 from 93 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 151 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 151 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 73.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 111.0
If we subtract 78 from 151, we get 73.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 73, then carry on: 738 / 78

Step 5:
78 can be fit into 738 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1119.0
Deduct 702 from 738 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 367 / 78

Step 6:
The number 78 fits into 367 4 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11194.0
Deduct 312 from 367 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 550 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11194.7
Subtracting 546 from 550 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11194.7
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 78 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11194.705
Deduct 390 from 400 and we're left with 10.
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 10:
If we divide 100 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11194.7051
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.

On to step 11:
78 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11194.70512
Subtracting 156 from 220 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 640 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11194.705128
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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 160 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11194.7051282
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
78 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11194.7051282
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 11194.7051282, and the remainder is 4e-08.
