290873 divided by 79 
Our goal is to divide 290873 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
79 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 29 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 290 / 79

On to step 3:
When dividing 290 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 53.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 237 from 290 and we're left with 53.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 538 / 79

Step 4:
When dividing 538 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtracting 474 from 538 leaves us with 64.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 647 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
647 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 15.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 368.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 632 from 647.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 153 / 79

Step 6:
79 goes into 153 1 times with a remainder of 74.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3681.0
Deduct 79 from 153 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
79 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3681.9
Subtracting 711 from 740 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 290 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 53.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3681.93
If we subtract 237 from 290, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 530 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3681.936
Deduct 474 from 530 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 560 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3681.9367
Subtracting 553 from 560 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 70 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3681.9367
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 700 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 68.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3681.936708
Subtracting 632 from 700 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 79 fits into 680 8 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3681.9367088
Deduct 632 from 680 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3681.9367088 with a balance of 4.8e-07.
