501676 divided by 78 
Our goal is to divide 501676 by 78.

On to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 50 / 78

On to step 2:
50 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 501 / 78

Step 3:
If we divide 501 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 468 from 501 and we're left with 33.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 336 / 78

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 336 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtract 312 from 336 to get 24.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 247 / 78

Going ahead to step 5:
78 can be fit into 247 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 643.0
Deduct 234 from 247 and we're left with 13.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 136 / 78

On to step 6:
When dividing 136 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 58.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6431.0
If we subtract 78 from 136, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 78 fits into 580 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6431.7
Subtract 546 from 580 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 78 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6431.74
Subtract 312 from 340 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
280 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6431.743
Subtract 234 from 280 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 78 fits into 460 5 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6431.7435
Deduct 390 from 460 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 700 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 76.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6431.74358
Subtracting 624 from 700 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
78 goes into 760 9 times with a remainder of 58.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6431.743589
If we take 702 away from 760, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
78 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6431.7435897
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 546 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
340 divided by 78 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6431.74358974
Deduct 312 from 340 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6431.74358974 with a remaining 2.8e-08.
