878979 divided by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 878979.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 79 from 87 to get 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 79 fits into 88 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 79 away from 88, we end up with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 99 1 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 111.0
If we take 79 away from 99, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 207 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
207 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 49.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1112.0
If we subtract 158 from 207, we get 49.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 499 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 499 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 25.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11126.0
Subtracting 474 from 499 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 250 3 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11126.3
Subtracting 237 from 250 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11126.31
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 79 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 510 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11126.316
If we take 474 away from 510, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11126.3164
Subtracting 316 from 360 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
79 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11126.31645
Deduct 395 from 440 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 450 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11126.316455
If we subtract 395 from 450, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11126.316455, and the remainder is 5.5e-06.
