115488 ÷ 78 
We're looking to find how many times 78 goes into 115488.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 78

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 11 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 115 / 78

Step 3:
78 can be fit into 115 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 78 away from 115, we end up with 37.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 374 / 78

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 374 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 62.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 312 from 374.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 628 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
The number 78 fits into 628 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 148.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 624 from 628.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 78

Step 6:
78 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1480.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
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 7:
480 divided by 78 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1480.6
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 468 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
78 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1480.61
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 78 from 120.
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 9:
78 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1480.615
Subtracting 390 from 420 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
78 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1480.6153
If we subtract 234 from 300, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 660 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1480.61538
Subtracting 624 from 660 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 78 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1480.615384
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 312 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 480 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1480.6153846
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 468 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
78 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1480.61538461
Subtract 78 from 120 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1480.61538461 and a remainder of 4.2e-08.
