We look at the division of 5783978 by 499 
We want to figure out the number of times 5783978 can be divided by 499.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 499 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 499

Step 2:
499 can be fit into 57 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 57, we end up with 57.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 578 / 499

Moving on to step 3:
499 goes into 578 1 times with a remainder of 79.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 499 from 578, we get 79.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 793 / 499

Moving on to step 4:
793 divided by 499 is 1 with a remainder of 294.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 499 away from 793, we end up with 294.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 294 and continue with: 2949 / 499

Step 5:
When dividing 2949 by 499, we get 5 with a remainder of 454.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 115.0
Subtract 2495 from 2949 to get 454.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 454, then carry on: 4547 / 499

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 4547 by 499, we get 9 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1159.0
Deduct 4491 from 4547 and we're left with 56.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 568 / 499

Moving on to step 7:
568 divided by 499 is 1 with a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11591.0
Subtracting 499 from 568 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 690 by 499, we get 1 and a remainder of 191.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11591.1
Deduct 499 from 690 and we're left with 191.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1910, and continue the process.

Step 9:
499 goes into 1910 3 times with a remainder of 413.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11591.13
If we take 1497 away from 1910, we end up with 413.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
499 goes into 4130 8 times with a remainder of 138.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11591.138
If we take 3992 away from 4130, we end up with 138.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 1380 by 499, we get 2 with a remainder of 382.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11591.1382
Subtract 998 from 1380 to get 382.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
499 goes into 3820 7 times with a remainder of 327.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11591.13827
Deduct 3493 from 3820 and we're left with 327.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3270, and continue the process.

Step 13:
499 can be fit into 3270 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 276.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11591.138276
If we subtract 2994 from 3270, we get 276.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 499 fits into 2760 5 times, leaving a remainder of 265.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11591.1382765
The remainder is 265 after subtracting 2495 from 2760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
2650 divided by 499 is 5 with a remainder of 155.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11591.13827655
If we take 2495 away from 2650, we end up with 155.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1550, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11591.13827655 and a remainder of 1.55e-07.
