Let's divide 168794 by 79
We want to divide 168794 by 79.

Let's proceed to step 1:
79 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 79

Step 2:
79 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 168 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
168 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 10.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 158 away from 168, we end up with 10.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 107 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
79 goes into 107 1 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 79 from 107 and we're left with 28.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 289 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
79 goes into 289 3 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 213.0
Subtract 237 from 289 to get 52.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 524 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
79 can be fit into 524 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2136.0
If we subtract 474 from 524, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2136.6
Subtracting 474 from 500 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 79 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2136.63
If we take 237 away from 260, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 79 fits into 230 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2136.632
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 158 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
720 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2136.6329
If we subtract 711 from 720, we get 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 11:
79 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2136.63291
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 79 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 110 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2136.632911
If we take 79 away from 110, we end up with 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 2136.632911 with a remainder of 3.1e-06.
