We look at the division of 427298 by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 427298.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 79

On to step 2:
79 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 427 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
427 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 32.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 395 from 427 leaves us with 32.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 322 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 322 4 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we take 316 away from 322, we end up with 6.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 69 / 79

Step 5:
69 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 69.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 540.0
Deduct 0 from 69 and we're left with 69.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 698 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
79 can be fit into 698 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5408.0
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 632 from 698.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 660 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5408.8
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 632 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5408.83
Subtract 237 from 280 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 430 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5408.835
If we subtract 395 from 430, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 350 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5408.8354
Subtract 316 from 350 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5408.83544
If we subtract 316 from 340, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5408.83544 and a remainder of 2.4e-05.
