Let's divide 475743 by 78
We want to divide 475743 by 78.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 78

Let's proceed to step 2:
78 can be fit into 47 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 475 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
78 goes into 475 6 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 468 away from 475, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
78 goes into 77 0 times with a remainder of 77.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 0 from 77.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 77 and continue: 774 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
78 can be fit into 774 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 609.0
Subtracting 702 from 774 leaves us with 72.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 72 and continue with: 723 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
723 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6099.0
Subtracting 702 from 723 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
78 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6099.2
If we take 156 away from 210, we end up 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 8:
The number 78 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6099.26
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 9:
78 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6099.269
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 702 from 720.
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 10:
180 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6099.2692
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.

Step 11:
When dividing 240 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6099.26923
If we take 234 away from 240, we end up 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.

On to step 12:
60 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6099.26923
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
600 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6099.2692307
If we take 546 away from 600, we end up 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.

Step 14:
540 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6099.26923076
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.

The final result is 6099.26923076 with a remainder of 7.2e-08.
