We look at the division of 562978 by 79 
We want to divide 562978 by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 56 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 56 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 56 leaves us with 56.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 562 / 79

Step 3:
If we divide 562 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 553 from 562.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 99 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 71.0
Deduct 79 from 99 and we're left with 20.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 207 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 207 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 712.0
If we take 158 away from 207, we end up with 49.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 498 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
498 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7126.0
Subtract 474 from 498 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
79 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7126.3
If we take 237 away from 240, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 30 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7126.3
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 300 3 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7126.303
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 237 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 630 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 77.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7126.3037
Subtract 553 from 630 to get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 770 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7126.30379
If we subtract 711 from 770, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 590 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 37.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7126.303797
If we take 553 away from 590, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 370 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 54.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7126.3037974
Deduct 316 from 370 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
79 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 66.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7126.30379746
Subtracting 474 from 540 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7126.30379746 with a balance of 6.6e-08.
