Let's divide 54458979 by 704
Let's see how many times 704 fits into 54458979.

Moving on to step 1:
704 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 704

Step 2:
704 can be fit into 54 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 54 leaves us with 54.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 544 / 704

Let's proceed to step 3:
544 divided by 704 is 0 with a remainder of 544.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 544 after subtracting 0 from 544.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 544, then repeat: 5445 / 704

Let's proceed to step 4:
704 goes into 5445 7 times with a remainder of 517.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 4928 from 5445 leaves us with 517.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 517, then carry on: 5178 / 704

Let's proceed to step 5:
5178 divided by 704 is 7 with a remainder of 250.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 77.0
If we subtract 4928 from 5178, we get 250.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 250, then repeat: 2509 / 704

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 704 fits into 2509 3 times, leaving a remainder of 397.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 773.0
If we take 2112 away from 2509, we end up with 397.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 397, then repeat: 3977 / 704

Going ahead to step 7:
704 can be fit into 3977 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 457.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7735.0
If we subtract 3520 from 3977, we get 457.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 457 and continue with: 4579 / 704

Step 8:
704 can be fit into 4579 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 355.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77356.0
Subtracting 4224 from 4579 leaves us with 355.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3550, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 3550 by 704, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 77356.5
If we subtract 3520 from 3550, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 300 by 704, we get 0 with a remainder of 300.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77356.5
Subtracting 0 from 300 leaves us with 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 3000 by 704, we get 4 with a remainder of 184.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 77356.504
Subtracting 2816 from 3000 leaves us with 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 1840 by 704, we get 2 with a remainder of 432.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77356.5042
The remainder is 432 after subtracting 1408 from 1840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
704 goes into 4320 6 times with a remainder of 96.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77356.50426
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 4224 from 4320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
704 can be fit into 960 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 256.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 77356.504261
Subtracting 704 from 960 leaves us with 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
704 goes into 2560 3 times with a remainder of 448.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 77356.5042613
Subtract 2112 from 2560 to get 448.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 4480 by 704, we get 6 and a remainder of 256.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 77356.50426136
The remainder is 256 after subtracting 4224 from 4480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 77356.50426136 with a balance of 2.56e-07.
