We divide 404488 by 79
Our goal is to divide 404488 by 79.

On to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 4 0 times, leaving 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.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 404 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
404 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 9.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 395 from 404 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 94 / 79

Step 4:
The number 79 fits into 94 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtract 79 from 94 to get 15.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 158 / 79

Step 5:
If we divide 158 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 512.0
Subtract 158 from 158 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
79 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5120.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 79 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5120.1
If we take 79 away from 80, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
10 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5120.1
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
79 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5120.101
If we subtract 79 from 100, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
79 goes into 210 2 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5120.1012
Subtract 158 from 210 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
520 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 46.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5120.10126
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 474 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 460 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5120.101265
Subtracting 395 from 460 leaves us with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 79 fits into 650 8 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5120.1012658
Deduct 632 from 650 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
180 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5120.10126582
Deduct 158 from 180 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5120.10126582 and a remainder of 2.2e-08.
