314731 divided by 78 
Our goal is to divide 314731 by 78.

Moving on to step 1:
78 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 78

Moving on to step 2:
78 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 314 / 78

Step 3:
The number 78 fits into 314 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 312 from 314 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
27 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 273 / 78

Step 5:
78 can be fit into 273 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 403.0
If we subtract 234 from 273, we get 39.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 391 / 78

Moving on to step 6:
391 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4035.0
Subtracting 390 from 391 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 78 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4035.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4035.01
Subtract 78 from 100 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 220 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4035.012
If we take 156 away from 220, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
78 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4035.0128
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 624 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 78, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4035.01282
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 78, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4035.01282
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
78 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4035.0128205
Subtracting 390 from 400 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
78 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4035.01282051
If we take 78 away from 100, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4035.01282051 with a remaining 2.2e-08.
