We're dividing 984808 by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 984808.

On to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
79 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 79 from 98 and we're left with 19.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 194 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
79 can be fit into 194 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 158 from 194.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 368 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
368 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 124.0
If we subtract 316 from 368, we get 52.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 520 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 520 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1246.0
Subtracting 474 from 520 leaves us with 46.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 468 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 468 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 73.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12465.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 395 from 468.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 730 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 19.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12465.9
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 711 from 730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 79 fits into 190 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12465.92
Subtracting 158 from 190 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 9:
320 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12465.924
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 316 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
40 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12465.924
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
400 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12465.92405
Deduct 395 from 400 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
79 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12465.92405
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
79 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12465.9240506
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.

Moving on to step 14:
79 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12465.92405063
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 237 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

The final result is 12465.92405063 with a remainder of 2.3e-08.
