116712 ÷ 79 
Our goal is to divide 116712 by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
79 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 11 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 116 / 79

Step 3:
116 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 79 away from 116, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 377 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 377 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 61.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 316 away from 377, we end up with 61.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 611 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
611 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147.0
Deduct 553 from 611 and we're left with 58.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 582 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 582 7 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1477.0
If we subtract 553 from 582, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 290 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 53.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1477.3
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 237 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
79 goes into 530 6 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1477.36
Subtracting 474 from 530 leaves us with 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 9:
If we divide 560 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1477.367
Subtracting 553 from 560 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 70 0 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1477.367
If we take 0 away from 70, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1477.36708
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 632 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
680 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1477.367088
Subtracting 632 from 680 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1477.367088, and the remainder is 4.8e-06.
