Let's divide 173381 by 79
We want to divide 173381 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
79 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 173 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 173 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 15.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 158 from 173 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 153 / 79

On to step 4:
When dividing 153 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 74.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 79 from 153 and we're left with 74.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 748 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
748 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 37.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 219.0
If we take 711 away from 748, we end up with 37.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 371 / 79

On to step 6:
79 can be fit into 371 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2194.0
Subtract 316 from 371 to 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.

Step 7:
550 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 76.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2194.6
Subtracting 474 from 550 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 760 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2194.69
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 711 from 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
490 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2194.696
Subtracting 474 from 490 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2194.6962
Deduct 158 from 160 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
20 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2194.6962
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2194.696202
If we subtract 158 from 200, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 420 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2194.6962025
If we subtract 395 from 420, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 250 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2194.69620253
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 237 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2194.69620253, with a leftover of 1.3e-08.
