We divide 985854 by 79
We want to figure out the number of times 985854 can be divided by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
79 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 79

On to step 2:
98 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 79 away from 98, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 195 / 79

On to step 3:
79 goes into 195 2 times with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 158 from 195 and we're left with 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
378 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124.0
Subtracting 316 from 378 leaves us with 62.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 62 and continue: 625 / 79

Step 5:
79 can be fit into 625 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1247.0
If we take 553 away from 625, we end up with 72.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 724 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
724 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12479.0
Subtracting 711 from 724 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 130 1 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12479.1
Subtracting 79 from 130 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 510 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12479.16
Subtracting 474 from 510 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 9:
79 goes into 360 4 times with a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12479.164
Subtracting 316 from 360 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
79 goes into 440 5 times with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12479.1645
Subtracting 395 from 440 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 450 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12479.16455
If we subtract 395 from 450, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 12479.16455, with a leftover of 5.5e-05.
