Let's divide 342162 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 342162.

Step 1:
3 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 34 0 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 34 and we're left with 34.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 342 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
79 goes into 342 4 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 316 from 342.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 261 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 261 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we subtract 237 from 261, we get 24.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 246 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 246 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 9.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 433.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 237 from 246.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 92 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 92 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4331.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 79 from 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
79 goes into 130 1 times with a remainder of 51.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4331.1
Deduct 79 from 130 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
79 goes into 510 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4331.16
Deduct 474 from 510 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.

On to 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: 4331.164
Subtract 316 from 360 to get 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:
The number 79 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4331.1645
Deduct 395 from 440 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
79 goes into 450 5 times with a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4331.16455
Deduct 395 from 450 and we're left with 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 result is 4331.16455 with a remainder of 5.5e-05.
