253338 divided by 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 253338.

Going ahead to step 1:
78 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 78

Advancing to step 2:
25 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 253 / 78

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 253 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 234 away from 253, we end up with 19.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 193 / 78

Step 4:
78 can be fit into 193 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 156 from 193 to get 37.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 373 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
78 can be fit into 373 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 324.0
Subtracting 312 from 373 leaves us with 61.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 618 / 78

Step 6:
78 goes into 618 7 times with a remainder of 72.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3247.0
Subtract 546 from 618 to get 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 7:
When dividing 720 by 78, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3247.9
Subtract 702 from 720 to 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 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: 3247.92
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.

Moving on to step 9:
78 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3247.923
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 60 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3247.923
Deduct 0 from 60 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.

Step 11:
The number 78 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3247.92307
If we subtract 546 from 600, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3247.923076
If we subtract 468 from 540, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
720 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3247.9230769
If we take 702 away from 720, 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.

Advancing to step 14:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3247.92307692
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 3247.92307692 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
