We divide 493990 by 79
We want to divide 493990 by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
79 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 493 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
79 goes into 493 6 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 474 away from 493, we end up with 19.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 199 / 79

Step 4:
The number 79 fits into 199 2 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 62.0
Deduct 158 from 199 and we're left with 41.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 419 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 419 5 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 625.0
Subtracting 395 from 419 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 240 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
240 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6253.0
If we take 237 away from 240, we end up 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.

On to step 7:
79 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6253.0
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
79 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 63.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.03
If we take 237 away from 300, we end up with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 630 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 77.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.037
Subtract 553 from 630 to get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 770 9 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.0379
If we subtract 711 from 770, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
79 goes into 590 7 times with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6253.03797
If we take 553 away from 590, 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 370 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 54.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6253.037974
Subtracting 316 from 370 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 13:
79 can be fit into 540 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6253.0379746
If we take 474 away from 540, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 660 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6253.03797468
If we take 632 away from 660, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final result is 6253.03797468 with a remainder of 2.8e-08.
