We divide 81979 by 10
We want to divide 81979 by 10.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 10, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 10

On to step 2:
If we divide 81 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 80 from 81, we get 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 10

Moving on to step 3:
19 divided by 10 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 10 from 19.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 10

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 97 by 10, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 819.0
Deduct 90 from 97 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 10

Let's proceed to step 5:
10 goes into 79 7 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8197.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 70 from 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
10 can be fit into 90 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8197.9
Subtract 90 from 90 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
10 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8197.9
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 10, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8197.9
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 8197.9 with a remainder of 0.0.
