Let's divide 78669 by 79
Our goal is to divide 78669 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 78 / 79

Step 2:
79 can be fit into 78 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 78 leaves us with 78.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 786 / 79

Step 3:
The number 79 fits into 786 9 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 711 from 786 to get 75.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 75, then repeat: 756 / 79

On to step 4:
79 goes into 756 9 times with a remainder of 45.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 99.0
If we take 711 away from 756, we end up with 45.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 459 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 459 5 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 995.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 395 from 459.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 640 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 995.8
Subtracting 632 from 640 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
80 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 995.81
If we subtract 79 from 80, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 995.81
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 9:
When dividing 100 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 995.8101
Deduct 79 from 100 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 995.81012
Subtract 158 from 210 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
79 can be fit into 520 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 995.810126
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 474 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 460 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 65.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 995.8101265
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 395 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 650 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 18.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 995.81012658
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 632 from 650.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Our division results in 995.81012658 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
