Let's divide 457629 by 78
Let's see how many times 78 fits into 457629.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 45 / 78

Step 2:
45 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 45, we end up with 45.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 457 / 78

Let's proceed to step 3:
457 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 390 from 457, we get 67.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 676 / 78

Going ahead to step 4:
676 divided by 78 is 8 with a remainder of 52.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we subtract 624 from 676, we get 52.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 522 / 78

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 522 by 78, we get 6 and a remainder of 54.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 586.0
If we take 468 away from 522, we end up with 54.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 549 / 78

Step 6:
78 can be fit into 549 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5867.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 546 from 549.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
30 divided by 78 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5867.0
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
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: 5867.03
Deduct 234 from 300 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 660 by 78, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5867.038
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 624 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 360 by 78, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5867.0384
Deduct 312 from 360 and we're left 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 11:
The number 78 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5867.03846
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.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 120 by 78, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5867.038461
Deduct 78 from 120 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
420 divided by 78 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5867.0384615
If we subtract 390 from 420, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
300 divided by 78 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5867.03846153
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 234 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5867.03846153 and a remainder of 6.6e-08.
