We're dividing 62599983 by 878 
We want to divide 62599983 by 878.

Step 1:
878 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 878

Step 2:
62 divided by 878 is 0 with a remainder of 62.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 62 and we're left with 62.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 625 / 878

Step 3:
625 divided by 878 is 0 with a remainder of 625.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 625 to get 625.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 625 and continue with: 6259 / 878

On to step 4:
If we divide 6259 by 878, we get 7 and a remainder of 113.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 113 after subtracting 6146 from 6259.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 113, then repeat: 1139 / 878

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1139 by 878, we get 1 with a remainder of 261.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 71.0
The remainder is 261 after subtracting 878 from 1139.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 261, then repeat: 2619 / 878

Going ahead to step 6:
2619 divided by 878 is 2 with a remainder of 863.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 712.0
If we take 1756 away from 2619, we end up with 863.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 863, then repeat: 8638 / 878

Going ahead to step 7:
878 can be fit into 8638 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 736.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7129.0
Deduct 7902 from 8638 and we're left with 736.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 736, then repeat: 7363 / 878

Step 8:
878 can be fit into 7363 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 339.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 71298.0
The remainder is 339 after subtracting 7024 from 7363.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
878 goes into 3390 3 times with a remainder of 756.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 71298.3
The remainder is 756 after subtracting 2634 from 3390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 7560 by 878, we get 8 and a remainder of 536.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71298.38
If we subtract 7024 from 7560, we get 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 5360 by 878, we get 6 with a remainder of 92.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71298.386
Deduct 5268 from 5360 and we're left with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 878 fits into 920 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 71298.3861
Subtracting 878 from 920 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
878 goes into 420 0 times with a remainder of 420.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 71298.3861
Deduct 0 from 420 and we're left with 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 14:
878 can be fit into 4200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 688.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 71298.386104
Subtract 3512 from 4200 to get 688.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
878 goes into 6880 7 times with a remainder of 734.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 71298.3861047
Deduct 6146 from 6880 and we're left with 734.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7340, and continue the process.

Step 16:
7340 divided by 878 is 8 with a remainder of 316.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71298.38610478
If we take 7024 away from 7340, we end up with 316.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 71298.38610478 and a remainder of 3.16e-07.
