We divide 400722 by 79
Our goal is to divide 400722 by 79.

Step 1:
The number 79 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
79 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 400 / 79

Step 3:
The number 79 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 395 from 400 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 79

On to step 4:
79 can be fit into 57 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 0 from 57.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 572 / 79

On to step 5:
If we divide 572 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 507.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 553 from 572.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 192 / 79

On to step 6:
If we divide 192 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5072.0
If we take 158 away from 192, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 7:
340 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5072.4
Subtracting 316 from 340 leaves us with 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 8:
79 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5072.43
If we subtract 237 from 240, we get 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 9:
30 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5072.43
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 300 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 63.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5072.4303
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.

Moving on to step 11:
79 goes into 630 7 times with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5072.43037
If we take 553 away from 630, we end up with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
79 can be fit into 770 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5072.430379
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 711 from 770.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
590 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 37.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5072.4303797
Subtracting 553 from 590 leaves us 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.

On to step 14:
The number 79 fits into 370 4 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5072.43037974
Subtracting 316 from 370 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 5072.43037974 and a remainder of 5.4e-08.
