We look at the division of 418608 by 78 
Our goal is to divide 418608 by 78.

On to step 1:
78 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 41 / 78

Step 2:
The number 78 fits into 41 0 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 0 from 41.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 418 / 78

On to step 3:
If we divide 418 by 78, we get 5 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 390 from 418, we get 28.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 286 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
78 can be fit into 286 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 234 from 286.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 520 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
78 can be fit into 520 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 536.0
Subtracting 468 from 520 leaves us with 52.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 528 / 78

On to step 6:
78 goes into 528 6 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5366.0
Deduct 468 from 528 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.

On to step 7:
78 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5366.7
Subtracting 546 from 600 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
540 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 72.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5366.76
Deduct 468 from 540 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
720 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5366.769
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.

Advancing to step 10:
180 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5366.7692
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 78 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5366.76923
If we subtract 234 from 240, we get 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 12:
When dividing 60 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5366.76923
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 600 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5366.7692307
Subtracting 546 from 600 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 540 by 78, we get 6 with a remainder of 72.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5366.76923076
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 468 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5366.76923076, and the remainder is 7.2e-08.
