314256 ÷ 78 
Our goal is to divide 314256 by 78.

Moving on to step 1:
3 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 78

Step 2:
When dividing 31 by 78, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 314 / 78

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 78 fits into 314 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 312 from 314.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
78 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 225 / 78

Let's proceed to step 5:
78 can be fit into 225 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 402.0
Subtracting 156 from 225 leaves us with 69.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 69 and continue: 696 / 78

Step 6:
When dividing 696 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4028.0
Subtract 624 from 696 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
78 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4028.9
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.

Moving on to step 8:
78 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4028.92
If we take 156 away from 180, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
78 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4028.923
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.

Step 10:
78 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4028.923
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
600 divided by 78 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4028.92307
Subtracting 546 from 600 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 can be fit into 540 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4028.923076
Subtract 468 from 540 to 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.

On to step 13:
78 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4028.9230769
Subtracting 702 from 720 leaves us 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 180 by 78, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4028.92307692
Subtract 156 from 180 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4028.92307692 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
