We look at the division of 487144 by 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 487144.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 487 / 78

On to step 3:
487 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 468 from 487, we get 19.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 191 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 191 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 62.0
Subtracting 156 from 191 leaves us with 35.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 354 / 78

Step 5:
The number 78 fits into 354 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 624.0
If we subtract 312 from 354, we get 42.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 424 / 78

Let's proceed to step 6:
78 goes into 424 5 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6245.0
Subtracting 390 from 424 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 340 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6245.4
Subtract 312 from 340 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 78, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6245.43
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 234 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
460 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6245.435
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 390 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
78 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6245.4358
Subtracting 624 from 700 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 760 by 78, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6245.43589
Deduct 702 from 760 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 580 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6245.435897
Subtract 546 from 580 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 340 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6245.4358974
If we subtract 312 from 340, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
280 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6245.43589743
If we take 234 away from 280, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6245.43589743 with a remaining 4.6e-08.
