We look at the division of 15553176 by 978 
Our goal is to divide 15553176 by 978.

On to step 1:
978 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 978

Step 2:
The number 978 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 155 / 978

Moving on to step 3:
978 can be fit into 155 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 155.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 155, we end up with 155.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 155, then repeat: 1555 / 978

Going ahead to step 4:
1555 divided by 978 is 1 with a remainder of 577.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 978 away from 1555, we end up with 577.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 577 and continue: 5773 / 978

Step 5:
978 goes into 5773 5 times with a remainder of 883.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 883 after subtracting 4890 from 5773.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 883, then carry on: 8831 / 978

On to step 6:
978 can be fit into 8831 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 159.0
Subtracting 8802 from 8831 leaves us with 29.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 297 / 978

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 297 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 297.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1590.0
Subtract 0 from 297 to get 297.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 297 and continue with: 2976 / 978

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 2976 by 978, we get 3 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15903.0
If we subtract 2934 from 2976, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 978 fits into 420 0 times, leaving a remainder of 420.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15903.0
Subtract 0 from 420 to get 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

Step 10:
978 goes into 4200 4 times with a remainder of 288.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15903.04
If we take 3912 away from 4200, we end up with 288.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 978 fits into 2880 2 times, leaving a remainder of 924.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15903.042
Subtract 1956 from 2880 to get 924.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 978 fits into 9240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 438.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15903.0429
Deduct 8802 from 9240 and we're left with 438.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
978 can be fit into 4380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 468.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15903.04294
The remainder is 468 after subtracting 3912 from 4380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
978 can be fit into 4680 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 768.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15903.042944
If we subtract 3912 from 4680, we get 768.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7680, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15903.042944 with a balance of 7.68e-05.
