We're dividing 163996 by 79 
Our goal is to divide 163996 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
79 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 163 / 79

Step 3:
When dividing 163 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 158 from 163 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
59 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 59.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 59, we end up with 59.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 599 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 599 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 46.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 207.0
Deduct 553 from 599 and we're left with 46.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 466 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
79 goes into 466 5 times with a remainder of 71.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2075.0
Deduct 395 from 466 and we're left with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 710 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 78.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2075.8
Subtracting 632 from 710 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
780 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 69.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2075.89
Deduct 711 from 780 and we're left with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
690 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 58.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2075.898
Deduct 632 from 690 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
79 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2075.8987
Deduct 553 from 580 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2075.89873
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 237 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 330 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2075.898734
Subtracting 316 from 330 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
140 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 61.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2075.8987341
If we subtract 79 from 140, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 610 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 57.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2075.89873417
Subtract 553 from 610 to get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2075.89873417 and a remainder of 5.7e-08.
