We're dividing 147101 by 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 147101.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 1 0 times, leaving 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.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 78

Step 2:
When dividing 14 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 147 / 78

Step 3:
147 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 78 from 147 to get 69.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 69, then repeat: 691 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 691 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 624 away from 691, we end up with 67.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 67, then carry on: 670 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 670 8 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 188.0
Subtract 624 from 670 to get 46.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 461 / 78

Step 6:
When dividing 461 by 78, we get 5 with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1885.0
If we subtract 390 from 461, we get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
78 can be fit into 710 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1885.9
If we subtract 702 from 710, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1885.91
Subtracting 78 from 80 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 9:
20 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1885.91
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 78 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1885.9102
Subtract 156 from 200 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
440 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1885.91025
If we take 390 away from 440, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
500 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1885.910256
Subtract 468 from 500 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
320 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1885.9102564
If we take 312 away from 320, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 80 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1885.91025641
If we take 78 away from 80, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final result is 1885.91025641 with a remainder of 2e-09.
