Let's divide 221729 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 221729.

Going ahead to step 1:
79 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 79

Step 2:
When dividing 22 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 221 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
79 can be fit into 221 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 158 from 221 to get 63.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 637 / 79

Step 4:
637 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 5.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 632 from 637.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 79

Step 5:
52 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 52.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 280.0
Subtract 0 from 52 to get 52.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 529 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
529 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 55.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2806.0
Subtracting 474 from 529 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 550 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 76.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2806.6
If we subtract 474 from 550, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
760 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2806.69
Subtracting 711 from 760 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 490 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2806.696
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 474 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
79 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2806.6962
Subtract 158 from 160 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
20 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2806.6962
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 200 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2806.696202
If we take 158 away from 200, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 420 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2806.6962025
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 395 from 420.
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 14:
250 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2806.69620253
If we take 237 away from 250, we end up 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.

Our division results in 2806.69620253 with a remaining 1.3e-08.
