We're dividing 5579092 by 872 
Let's see how many times 872 fits into 5579092.

Step 1:
872 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 872

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 55 by 872, we get 0 and a remainder of 55.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 55, we get 55.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 557 / 872

Step 3:
The number 872 fits into 557 0 times, leaving a remainder of 557.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 557 and we're left with 557.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 557 and continue with: 5579 / 872

Going ahead to step 4:
872 goes into 5579 6 times with a remainder of 347.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 5232 from 5579, we get 347.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 347, then repeat: 3470 / 872

Let's proceed to step 5:
3470 divided by 872 is 3 with a remainder of 854.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 2616 from 3470, we get 854.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 854, then carry on: 8549 / 872

Let's proceed to step 6:
8549 divided by 872 is 9 with a remainder of 701.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 639.0
The remainder is 701 after subtracting 7848 from 8549.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 701 and continue: 7012 / 872

Advancing to step 7:
The number 872 fits into 7012 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6398.0
Deduct 6976 from 7012 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 872 fits into 360 0 times, leaving a remainder of 360.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6398.0
If we subtract 0 from 360, we get 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
872 can be fit into 3600 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6398.04
If we take 3488 away from 3600, we end up with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
1120 divided by 872 is 1 with a remainder of 248.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6398.041
If we subtract 872 from 1120, we get 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
2480 divided by 872 is 2 with a remainder of 736.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6398.0412
Subtract 1744 from 2480 to get 736.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
872 goes into 7360 8 times with a remainder of 384.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6398.04128
Subtracting 6976 from 7360 leaves us with 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 872 fits into 3840 4 times, leaving a remainder of 352.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6398.041284
If we take 3488 away from 3840, we end up with 352.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 3520 by 872, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6398.0412844
Deduct 3488 from 3520 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6398.0412844 with a remaining 3.2e-07.
