We look at the division of 470969 by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 470969.

Step 1:
4 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
47 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 47 to get 47.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 470 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
79 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 395 from 470 leaves us with 75.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 75 and repeat the process: 759 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 759 9 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 711 away from 759, we end up with 48.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 486 / 79

On to step 5:
79 goes into 486 6 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 596.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 474 from 486.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 129 / 79

On to step 6:
129 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5961.0
Deduct 79 from 129 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5961.6
Deduct 474 from 500 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
260 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5961.63
Subtract 237 from 260 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 230 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5961.632
If we subtract 158 from 230, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
79 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5961.6329
Deduct 711 from 720 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
90 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5961.63291
If we take 79 away from 90, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5961.632911
Subtracting 79 from 110 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5961.632911 with a remaining 3.1e-06.
