We're dividing 331618 by 78 
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 331618.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 33 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 33 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 33.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 33 to get 33.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 331 / 78

Advancing to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 331 4 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 312 from 331 leaves us with 19.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 196 / 78

On to step 4:
If we divide 196 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 156 from 196.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 401 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
78 can be fit into 401 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 425.0
If we subtract 390 from 401, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 78

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 118 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 40.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4251.0
Deduct 78 from 118 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 78 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4251.5
If we subtract 390 from 400, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 78 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4251.51
Subtracting 78 from 100 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
78 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4251.512
If we take 156 away from 220, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 640 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4251.5128
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 624 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
78 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4251.51282
If we subtract 156 from 160, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
78 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4251.51282
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
78 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4251.5128205
If we subtract 390 from 400, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
100 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4251.51282051
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 78 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4251.51282051, and the remainder is 2.2e-08.
