We're dividing 78983741 by 972 
We want to figure out the number of times 78983741 can be divided by 972.

Step 1:
When dividing 7 by 972, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 972

Going ahead to step 2:
78 divided by 972 is 0 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 78 and we're left with 78.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 78 and repeat the process: 789 / 972

Advancing to step 3:
972 goes into 789 0 times with a remainder of 789.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 789 after subtracting 0 from 789.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 789, then repeat: 7898 / 972

Step 4:
972 goes into 7898 8 times with a remainder of 122.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 122 after subtracting 7776 from 7898.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 122, then repeat: 1223 / 972

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 1223 by 972, we get 1 and a remainder of 251.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we take 972 away from 1223, we end up with 251.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 251, then carry on: 2517 / 972

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 972 fits into 2517 2 times, leaving a remainder of 573.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 812.0
The remainder is 573 after subtracting 1944 from 2517.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 573 and continue: 5734 / 972

Advancing to step 7:
972 can be fit into 5734 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 874.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8125.0
Deduct 4860 from 5734 and we're left with 874.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 874 and repeat the process: 8741 / 972

Moving on to step 8:
972 goes into 8741 8 times with a remainder of 965.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81258.0
The remainder is 965 after subtracting 7776 from 8741.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 9650 by 972, we get 9 with a remainder of 902.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81258.9
Deduct 8748 from 9650 and we're left with 902.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9020, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
972 goes into 9020 9 times with a remainder of 272.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 81258.99
Subtracting 8748 from 9020 leaves us with 272.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2720, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 81258.99 with a balance of 0.272.
