855991 divided by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 855991.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 can be fit into 85 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 79 from 85 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 65 / 79

On to step 3:
If we divide 65 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 65.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 65, we end up with 65.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 65 and continue: 659 / 79

Step 4:
79 can be fit into 659 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we take 632 away from 659, we end up with 27.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 279 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
279 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1083.0
Subtracting 237 from 279 leaves us with 42.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 421 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 421 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 26.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10835.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 395 from 421.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
260 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10835.3
Deduct 237 from 260 and we're left with 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 8:
79 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10835.32
Subtract 158 from 230 to 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10835.329
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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 90 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10835.3291
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 11:
If we divide 110 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10835.32911
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.

The quotient of the division is 10835.32911, and the remainder is 3.1e-05.
