383793 ÷ 78 
We want to divide 383793 by 78.

Advancing to step 1:
78 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 78

On to step 2:
The number 78 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 383 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
383 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 71.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 312 from 383, we get 71.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 717 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
717 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 702 from 717.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 78

Step 5:
When dividing 159 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 3.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 492.0
Subtracting 156 from 159 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 33 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 78 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4920.0
Subtract 0 from 33 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 330 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4920.4
If we take 312 away from 330, 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 8:
The number 78 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4920.42
Subtract 156 from 180 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
78 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4920.423
Subtracting 234 from 240 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
78 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4920.423
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up 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 11:
When dividing 600 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4920.42307
Deduct 546 from 600 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4920.423076
Subtracting 468 from 540 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
The number 78 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4920.4230769
If we subtract 702 from 720, we get 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 14:
When dividing 180 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4920.42307692
Subtracting 156 from 180 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 4920.42307692 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
