Let's divide 579996 by 83
Our goal is to divide 579996 by 83.

Going ahead to step 1:
83 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 57 / 83

Let's proceed to step 2:
57 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 57.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 57 leaves us with 57.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 579 / 83

Moving on to step 3:
579 divided by 83 is 6 with a remainder of 81.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 498 from 579, we get 81.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 81, then carry on: 819 / 83

Moving on to step 4:
83 goes into 819 9 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 69.0
Deduct 747 from 819 and we're left with 72.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 729 / 83

Advancing to step 5:
729 divided by 83 is 8 with a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 698.0
Subtracting 664 from 729 leaves us with 65.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 656 / 83

On to step 6:
656 divided by 83 is 7 with a remainder of 75.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6987.0
If we subtract 581 from 656, we 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.

On to step 7:
The number 83 fits into 750 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6987.9
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 747 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
83 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6987.9
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 300 by 83, we get 3 and a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6987.903
If we subtract 249 from 300, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 83 fits into 510 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6987.9036
If we subtract 498 from 510, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 83, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6987.90361
If we take 83 away from 120, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 83 fits into 370 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6987.903614
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 332 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 380 by 83, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6987.9036144
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 332 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6987.9036144 with a remaining 4.8e-07.
