78242 divided by 1 
We're looking to find how many times 1 goes into 78242.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 1 is 7 with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 7 away from 7, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 1

Step 2:
8 divided by 1 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 78.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 1

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 2 by 1, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 782.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 1

Let's proceed to step 4:
1 can be fit into 4 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7824.0
If we subtract 4 from 4, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
1 can be fit into 2 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 78242.0
Deduct 2 from 2 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78242.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 78242.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 78242.0 with a remaining 0.0.
