We divide 342856 by 79
We want to figure out the number of times 342856 can be divided by 79.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
79 goes into 34 0 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 34, we get 34.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 342 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
79 can be fit into 342 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 316 from 342, we get 26.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 268 / 79

Step 4:
79 goes into 268 3 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 43.0
Subtracting 237 from 268 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 315 / 79

On to step 5:
79 goes into 315 3 times with a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 433.0
Subtracting 237 from 315 leaves us with 78.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 78, then repeat: 786 / 79

Step 6:
79 can be fit into 786 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4339.0
Subtract 711 from 786 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Step 7:
79 goes into 750 9 times with a remainder of 39.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4339.9
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 711 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
79 goes into 390 4 times with a remainder of 74.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4339.94
Subtract 316 from 390 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4339.949
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 711 from 740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
79 can be fit into 290 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4339.9493
If we subtract 237 from 290, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 11:
79 can be fit into 530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4339.94936
Deduct 474 from 530 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
79 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4339.949367
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 79 fits into 70 0 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4339.949367
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
79 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 68.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4339.94936708
If we subtract 632 from 700, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4339.94936708, with a leftover of 6.8e-08.
