873496 divided by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 873496.

Advancing to step 1:
8 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 79

On to step 2:
87 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 79 from 87, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 83 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
79 goes into 83 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 79 from 83.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 44 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
79 can be fit into 44 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 110.0
If we take 0 away from 44, we end up with 44.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 449 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 449 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1105.0
Subtracting 395 from 449 leaves us with 54.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 546 / 79

On to step 6:
If we divide 546 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 72.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11056.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 474 from 546.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
79 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11056.9
Subtracting 711 from 720 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
79 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11056.91
If we subtract 79 from 90, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 110 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11056.911
Subtract 79 from 110 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

The final result is 11056.911 with a remainder of 0.0031.
