We divide 43211493 by 278
We want to figure out the number of times 43211493 can be divided by 278.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 278, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 43 / 278

Moving on to step 2:
278 can be fit into 43 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 43 to get 43.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 432 / 278

On to step 3:
If we divide 432 by 278, we get 1 and a remainder of 154.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 278 away from 432, we end up with 154.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 154, then repeat: 1541 / 278

Step 4:
The number 278 fits into 1541 5 times, leaving a remainder of 151.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 151 after subtracting 1390 from 1541.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 151, then repeat: 1511 / 278

Step 5:
278 goes into 1511 5 times with a remainder of 121.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 155.0
Subtract 1390 from 1511 to get 121.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 121, then repeat: 1214 / 278

Moving on to step 6:
278 can be fit into 1214 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 102.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1554.0
If we subtract 1112 from 1214, we get 102.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 102 and continue with: 1029 / 278

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 278 fits into 1029 3 times, leaving a remainder of 195.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15543.0
Deduct 834 from 1029 and we're left with 195.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 195 and repeat the process: 1953 / 278

Moving on to step 8:
The number 278 fits into 1953 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155437.0
If we subtract 1946 from 1953, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
70 divided by 278 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 155437.0
Deduct 0 from 70 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 10:
The number 278 fits into 700 2 times, leaving a remainder of 144.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155437.02
Subtract 556 from 700 to get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 278 fits into 1440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155437.025
Subtracting 1390 from 1440 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
500 divided by 278 is 1 with a remainder of 222.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 155437.0251
The remainder is 222 after subtracting 278 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 2220 by 278, we get 7 with a remainder of 274.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 155437.02517
Subtract 1946 from 2220 to get 274.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
278 can be fit into 2740 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 238.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 155437.025179
Subtracting 2502 from 2740 leaves us with 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Step 15:
2380 divided by 278 is 8 with a remainder of 156.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 155437.0251798
If we subtract 2224 from 2380, we get 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
The number 278 fits into 1560 5 times, leaving a remainder of 170.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 155437.02517985
Subtract 1390 from 1560 to get 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 155437.02517985 with a balance of 1.7e-07.
