We look at the division of 879881 by 16 
We want to divide 879881 by 16.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 16

Step 2:
If we divide 87 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 80 from 87 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 79 / 16

Step 3:
The number 16 fits into 79 4 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we subtract 64 from 79, we get 15.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 158 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
The number 16 fits into 158 9 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 549.0
Subtract 144 from 158 to get 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 16

Advancing to step 5:
148 divided by 16 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5499.0
Deduct 144 from 148 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 16

Step 6:
16 goes into 41 2 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54992.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 32 from 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 54992.5
If we take 80 away from 90, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 16, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54992.56
If we subtract 96 from 100, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 16, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54992.562
Subtract 32 from 40 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
16 goes into 80 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54992.5625
Subtract 80 from 80 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54992.5625
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54992.5625
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 54992.5625 with a balance of 0.0.
