Let's divide 453944 by 78
We want to divide 453944 by 78.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 78

Going ahead to step 2:
78 goes into 45 0 times with a remainder of 45.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 0 from 45.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 453 / 78

Going ahead to step 3:
78 goes into 453 5 times with a remainder of 63.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 390 from 453 to get 63.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 639 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 639 by 78, we get 8 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 624 from 639.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 154 / 78

Moving on to step 5:
78 goes into 154 1 times with a remainder of 76.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 581.0
Deduct 78 from 154 and we're left with 76.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 76 and continue: 764 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
The number 78 fits into 764 9 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5819.0
Deduct 702 from 764 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
78 can be fit into 620 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5819.7
Deduct 546 from 620 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 8:
78 can be fit into 740 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5819.79
If we subtract 702 from 740, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
78 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5819.794
Subtracting 312 from 380 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
78 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5819.7948
Subtracting 624 from 680 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 78 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5819.79487
If we take 546 away from 560, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
140 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 62.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5819.794871
If we take 78 away from 140, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 620 by 78, we get 7 and a remainder of 74.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5819.7948717
Deduct 546 from 620 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 14:
78 can be fit into 740 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5819.79487179
Subtract 702 from 740 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5819.79487179, and the remainder is 3.8e-08.
