979796 ÷ 7 
We want to figure out the number of times 979796 can be divided by 7.

On to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 7, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 7 away from 9, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 7

Step 2:
If we divide 27 by 7, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 21 from 27, we get 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 7

On to step 3:
7 goes into 69 9 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139.0
Deduct 63 from 69 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 67 / 7

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 7 fits into 67 9 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1399.0
If we take 63 away from 67, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 7

Step 5:
When dividing 49 by 7, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13997.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 49 from 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 7

On to step 6:
7 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139970.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 7, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 139970.8
Subtracting 56 from 60 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 7, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139970.85
Deduct 35 from 40 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
50 divided by 7 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139970.857
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 49 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 10 by 7, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139970.8571
Subtracting 7 from 10 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 30 by 7, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139970.85714
Subtracting 28 from 30 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 139970.857142
Subtract 14 from 20 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
7 can be fit into 60 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 139970.8571428
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 40 by 7, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 139970.85714285
If we take 35 away from 40, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 139970.85714285 and a remainder of 5e-09.
