We look at the division of 979973 by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 979973.

On to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
79 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 79 from 97, we get 18.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 189 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
79 can be fit into 189 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 158 away from 189, we end up with 31.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 319 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
79 goes into 319 4 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124.0
If we subtract 316 from 319, we get 3.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 37 / 79

On to step 5:
37 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 37.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1240.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 373 / 79

Step 6:
79 goes into 373 4 times with a remainder of 57.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12404.0
If we subtract 316 from 373, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
570 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12404.7
Deduct 553 from 570 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
170 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12404.72
If we subtract 158 from 170, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
79 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12404.721
If we take 79 away from 120, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
410 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12404.7215
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 395 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 150 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 71.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12404.72151
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 79 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 710 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 78.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12404.721518
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 632 from 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
79 can be fit into 780 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12404.7215189
Subtract 711 from 780 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
79 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 58.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12404.72151898
Subtract 632 from 690 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12404.72151898 with a balance of 5.8e-08.
