We divide 275697 by 78
Our goal is to divide 275697 by 78.

Moving on to step 1:
78 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
27 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 275 / 78

On to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 275 3 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 234 from 275 leaves us with 41.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 416 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
416 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 26.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35.0
Subtracting 390 from 416 leaves us with 26.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 269 / 78

Step 5:
78 can be fit into 269 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 353.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 234 from 269.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 357 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 357 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 45.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3534.0
If we take 312 away from 357, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 78 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3534.5
Subtract 390 from 450 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 8:
78 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3534.57
If we subtract 546 from 600, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 78 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3534.576
If we take 468 away from 540, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
78 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3534.5769
If we take 702 away from 720, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 180 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3534.57692
If we take 156 away from 180, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3534.576923
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
60 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3534.576923
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 78 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3534.57692307
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 546 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3534.57692307 with a balance of 5.4e-08.
