15497 ÷ 79 
Our goal is to divide 15497 by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
79 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
79 goes into 15 0 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 154 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
154 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 75.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 79 from 154.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 75, then repeat: 759 / 79

On to step 4:
759 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 711 from 759, we get 48.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 487 / 79

On to step 5:
79 can be fit into 487 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 196.0
If we subtract 474 from 487, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 6:
When dividing 130 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 51.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 196.1
Deduct 79 from 130 and we're left with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
79 can be fit into 510 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 196.16
Deduct 474 from 510 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 79 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 196.164
If we take 316 away from 360, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 440 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 196.1645
Subtracting 395 from 440 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 196.16455
If we subtract 395 from 450, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The final result is 196.16455 with a remainder of 5.5e-05.
