Let's divide 173292 by 79
We want to divide 173292 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 79

On to step 2:
17 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 173 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 173 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 15.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 158 from 173 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 152 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 152 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we take 79 away from 152, we end up with 73.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 739 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 739 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 219.0
If we subtract 711 from 739, we get 28.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 282 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
79 goes into 282 3 times with a remainder of 45.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2193.0
Deduct 237 from 282 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 450 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2193.5
If we subtract 395 from 450, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2193.56
Deduct 474 from 550 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 760 9 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2193.569
If we subtract 711 from 760, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 490 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2193.5696
Subtract 474 from 490 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
79 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2193.56962
Deduct 158 from 160 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2193.56962
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
79 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2193.5696202
Subtracting 158 from 200 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
79 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2193.56962025
If we take 395 away from 420, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2193.56962025 and a remainder of 2.5e-08.
