We look at the division of 498709 by 79 
We want to figure out the number of times 498709 can be divided by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 49 0 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 49 to get 49.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 498 / 79

Step 3:
The number 79 fits into 498 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 474 from 498 leaves us with 24.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 247 / 79

On to step 4:
247 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 237 from 247.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 100 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 631.0
Subtracting 79 from 100 leaves us with 21.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 219 / 79

Step 6:
79 can be fit into 219 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6312.0
Subtracting 158 from 219 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 610 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 57.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6312.7
Deduct 553 from 610 and we're left with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 79 fits into 570 7 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6312.77
Subtracting 553 from 570 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final result is 6312.77 with a remainder of 0.017.
