We divide 79860571 by 261
We want to divide 79860571 by 261.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 261, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 261

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 79 by 261, we get 0 with a remainder of 79.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 79 leaves us with 79.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 79, then carry on: 798 / 261

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 261 fits into 798 3 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 783 from 798 to get 15.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 156 / 261

On to step 4:
261 can be fit into 156 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 156.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 156 to get 156.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 156 and repeat the process: 1560 / 261

On to step 5:
261 goes into 1560 5 times with a remainder of 255.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 305.0
Subtracting 1305 from 1560 leaves us with 255.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 255 and continue: 2555 / 261

Step 6:
The number 261 fits into 2555 9 times, leaving a remainder of 206.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3059.0
Subtracting 2349 from 2555 leaves us with 206.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 206 and repeat the process: 2067 / 261

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 261 fits into 2067 7 times, leaving a remainder of 240.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 30597.0
Subtracting 1827 from 2067 leaves us with 240.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 240 and repeat the process: 2401 / 261

On to step 8:
261 goes into 2401 9 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 305979.0
Deduct 2349 from 2401 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 520 by 261, we get 1 and a remainder of 259.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 305979.1
If we subtract 261 from 520, we get 259.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2590, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
261 can be fit into 2590 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 241.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 305979.19
If we take 2349 away from 2590, we end up with 241.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 261 fits into 2410 9 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 305979.199
If we take 2349 away from 2410, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 305979.199, and the remainder is 0.0061.
