We're dividing 279216 by 70 
Our goal is to divide 279216 by 70.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 70, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 70

On to step 2:
27 divided by 70 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 279 / 70

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 279 by 70, we get 3 and a remainder of 69.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 210 away from 279, we end up with 69.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 69 and continue: 692 / 70

Going ahead to step 4:
70 goes into 692 9 times with a remainder of 62.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we take 630 away from 692, we end up with 62.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 621 / 70

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 70 fits into 621 8 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 398.0
If we subtract 560 from 621, we get 61.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 616 / 70

Step 6:
616 divided by 70 is 8 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3988.0
If we subtract 560 from 616, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
70 goes into 560 8 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3988.8
If we take 560 away from 560, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
70 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3988.8
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
0 divided by 70 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3988.8
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3988.8, and the remainder is 0.0.
