472301 divided by 79 
Our goal is to divide 472301 by 79.

Step 1:
4 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
47 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 472 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
79 can be fit into 472 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 77.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 395 from 472 leaves us with 77.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 77 and repeat the process: 773 / 79

On to step 4:
79 can be fit into 773 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 711 away from 773, we end up with 62.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 620 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 620 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 67.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 597.0
Deduct 553 from 620 and we're left with 67.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 671 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 goes into 671 8 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5978.0
Subtract 632 from 671 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 390 4 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5978.4
If we subtract 316 from 390, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
740 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5978.49
Subtracting 711 from 740 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 290 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 53.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5978.493
If we subtract 237 from 290, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 530 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5978.4936
If we take 474 away from 530, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5978.49367
If we subtract 553 from 560, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
70 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5978.49367
If we take 0 away from 70, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 700 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 68.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5978.4936708
Subtract 632 from 700 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 14:
79 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5978.49367088
Subtracting 632 from 680 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5978.49367088, with a leftover of 4.8e-08.
