Let's divide 160982 by 78
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 160982.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 78

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 160 / 78

On to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 78

Step 4:
If we divide 49 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 498 / 78

On to step 5:
If we divide 498 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 30.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 206.0
Subtracting 468 from 498 leaves us with 30.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 302 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 302 by 78, we get 3 and a remainder of 68.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2063.0
If we subtract 234 from 302, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
680 divided by 78 is 8 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2063.8
If we subtract 624 from 680, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
560 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2063.87
If we take 546 away from 560, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 140 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 62.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2063.871
If we subtract 78 from 140, we get 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 10:
620 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2063.8717
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 546 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
78 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2063.87179
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.

Step 12:
78 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2063.871794
Subtracting 312 from 380 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
If we divide 680 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2063.8717948
Subtract 624 from 680 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
78 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2063.87179487
If we take 546 away from 560, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 2063.87179487 and a remainder of 1.4e-08.
