Let's divide 16583355 by 279
We want to divide 16583355 by 279.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 279 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 279

Step 2:
16 divided by 279 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 165 / 279

On to step 3:
279 can be fit into 165 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 165.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 165 after subtracting 0 from 165.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 165, then carry on: 1658 / 279

Moving on to step 4:
The number 279 fits into 1658 5 times, leaving a remainder of 263.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 1395 from 1658, we get 263.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 263 and continue with: 2633 / 279

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 2633 by 279, we get 9 with a remainder of 122.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtract 2511 from 2633 to get 122.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 122, then carry on: 1223 / 279

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 1223 by 279, we get 4 and a remainder of 107.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 594.0
The remainder is 107 after subtracting 1116 from 1223.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 107 and repeat the process: 1075 / 279

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 1075 by 279, we get 3 with a remainder of 238.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5943.0
Subtract 837 from 1075 to get 238.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 238 and continue: 2385 / 279

Step 8:
When dividing 2385 by 279, we get 8 with a remainder of 153.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59438.0
The remainder is 153 after subtracting 2232 from 2385.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 279 fits into 1530 5 times, leaving a remainder of 135.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59438.5
If we subtract 1395 from 1530, we get 135.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 279 fits into 1350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 234.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59438.54
The remainder is 234 after subtracting 1116 from 1350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 2340 by 279, we get 8 with a remainder of 108.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59438.548
Subtracting 2232 from 2340 leaves us with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 1080 by 279, we get 3 and a remainder of 243.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 59438.5483
If we subtract 837 from 1080, we get 243.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
279 can be fit into 2430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 198.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59438.54838
Subtract 2232 from 2430 to get 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 279 fits into 1980 7 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59438.548387
Deduct 1953 from 1980 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 279 fits into 270 0 times, leaving a remainder of 270.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59438.548387
Subtract 0 from 270 to get 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
279 can be fit into 2700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 189.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59438.54838709
If we subtract 2511 from 2700, we get 189.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1890, and continue the process.

The final result is 59438.54838709 with a remainder of 1.89e-07.
