We look at the division of 487989 by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 487989.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 0 from 48.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 487 / 79

Step 3:
79 can be fit into 487 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 474 from 487 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
79 can be fit into 139 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtracting 79 from 139 leaves us with 60.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 608 / 79

Step 5:
The number 79 fits into 608 7 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 617.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 553 from 608.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 559 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 559 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6177.0
Deduct 553 from 559 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
79 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6177.0
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
79 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 47.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6177.07
If we subtract 553 from 600, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 470 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6177.075
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 395 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
750 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6177.0759
Subtracting 711 from 750 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 390 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 74.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6177.07594
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 316 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 740 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 29.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6177.075949
If we subtract 711 from 740, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
79 goes into 290 3 times with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6177.0759493
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 237 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
530 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6177.07594936
Deduct 474 from 530 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6177.07594936, with a leftover of 5.6e-08.
