We divide 472901 by 79
We want to figure out the number of times 472901 can be divided by 79.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 47 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 472 / 79

Step 3:
The number 79 fits into 472 5 times, leaving a remainder of 77.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 395 away from 472, we end up with 77.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 77, then carry on: 779 / 79

On to step 4:
79 goes into 779 9 times with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 711 from 779.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 68, then repeat: 680 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
79 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 598.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 632 from 680.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 481 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 481 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5986.0
If we subtract 474 from 481, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
79 goes into 70 0 times with a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5986.0
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 700 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 68.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5986.08
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 632 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
79 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5986.088
Subtract 632 from 680 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5986.088, and the remainder is 0.0048.
