We're dividing 87726 by 78 
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 87726.

Step 1:
The number 78 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 78 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 78 away from 87, we end up with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 78

On to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 78 from 97.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 192 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
78 can be fit into 192 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 112.0
If we subtract 156 from 192, we get 36.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 366 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 366 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1124.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 312 from 366.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 6:
78 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1124.6
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.

Going ahead to step 7:
720 divided by 78 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1124.69
If we subtract 702 from 720, we 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1124.692
Deduct 156 from 180 and we're left 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:
240 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1124.6923
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 234 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 60 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1124.6923
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us 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:
600 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1124.692307
Deduct 546 from 600 and we're left 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 12:
78 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1124.6923076
Subtracting 468 from 540 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 720 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1124.69230769
Deduct 702 from 720 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 1124.69230769 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
