We're dividing 78421750 by 479 
Our goal is to divide 78421750 by 479.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 479, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 479

On to step 2:
479 can be fit into 78 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 78 leaves us with 78.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 78, then repeat: 784 / 479

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 784 by 479, we get 1 and a remainder of 305.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 479 from 784, we get 305.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 305 and continue with: 3052 / 479

Step 4:
The number 479 fits into 3052 6 times, leaving a remainder of 178.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 2874 from 3052, we get 178.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 178, then repeat: 1781 / 479

On to step 5:
When dividing 1781 by 479, we get 3 with a remainder of 344.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 163.0
If we take 1437 away from 1781, we end up with 344.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 344 and repeat the process: 3447 / 479

On to step 6:
If we divide 3447 by 479, we get 7 and a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1637.0
If we subtract 3353 from 3447, we get 94.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 94, then repeat: 945 / 479

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 479 fits into 945 1 times, leaving a remainder of 466.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16371.0
Subtracting 479 from 945 leaves us with 466.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 466 and continue with: 4660 / 479

Step 8:
479 can be fit into 4660 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 349.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 163719.0
Subtracting 4311 from 4660 leaves us with 349.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3490, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
479 can be fit into 3490 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 137.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163719.7
Deduct 3353 from 3490 and we're left with 137.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1370, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 1370 by 479, we get 2 with a remainder of 412.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 163719.72
Deduct 958 from 1370 and we're left with 412.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 4120 by 479, we get 8 with a remainder of 288.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163719.728
If we subtract 3832 from 4120, we get 288.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
2880 divided by 479 is 6 with a remainder of 6.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163719.7286
If we subtract 2874 from 2880, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 479, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163719.7286
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 14:
479 goes into 600 1 times with a remainder of 121.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 163719.728601
The remainder is 121 after subtracting 479 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 1210 by 479, we get 2 with a remainder of 252.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 163719.7286012
The remainder is 252 after subtracting 958 from 1210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
479 can be fit into 2520 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 125.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163719.72860125
Subtract 2395 from 2520 to get 125.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1250, and continue the process.

Our division results in 163719.72860125 with a remaining 1.25e-07.
