18841971 ÷ 978 
We want to divide 18841971 by 978.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 978

Moving on to step 2:
978 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 978

Step 3:
When dividing 188 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 188.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 188 and we're left with 188.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 188 and repeat the process: 1884 / 978

Step 4:
The number 978 fits into 1884 1 times, leaving a remainder of 906.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 978 away from 1884, we end up with 906.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 906, then repeat: 9061 / 978

Advancing to step 5:
978 can be fit into 9061 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 259.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 8802 from 9061 leaves us with 259.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 259 and continue with: 2599 / 978

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 2599 by 978, we get 2 with a remainder of 643.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 192.0
Deduct 1956 from 2599 and we're left with 643.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 643, then repeat: 6437 / 978

Going ahead to step 7:
6437 divided by 978 is 6 with a remainder of 569.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1926.0
Deduct 5868 from 6437 and we're left with 569.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 569 and continue with: 5691 / 978

Step 8:
978 goes into 5691 5 times with a remainder of 801.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 19265.0
Subtracting 4890 from 5691 leaves us with 801.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8010, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 8010 by 978, we get 8 with a remainder of 186.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 19265.8
Subtracting 7824 from 8010 leaves us with 186.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
1860 divided by 978 is 1 with a remainder of 882.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19265.81
Subtracting 978 from 1860 leaves us with 882.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8820, and continue the process.

Step 11:
8820 divided by 978 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19265.819
If we take 8802 away from 8820, 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
180 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 180.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19265.819
Deduct 0 from 180 and we're left with 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 1800 by 978, we get 1 and a remainder of 822.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19265.81901
Subtract 978 from 1800 to get 822.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
978 can be fit into 8220 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 396.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19265.819018
Subtracting 7824 from 8220 leaves us with 396.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

Step 15:
If we divide 3960 by 978, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19265.8190184
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 3912 from 3960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 480 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 480.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19265.8190184
If we subtract 0 from 480, we get 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 19265.8190184, with a leftover of 4.8e-07.
