422879 ÷ 99 
We're looking to find how many times 99 goes into 422879.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 99, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 99

Moving on to step 2:
42 divided by 99 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 422 / 99

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 422 by 99, we get 4 and a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 396 from 422, we get 26.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 268 / 99

Step 4:
When dividing 268 by 99, we get 2 with a remainder of 70.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 198 from 268 leaves us with 70.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 707 / 99

Moving on to step 5:
99 goes into 707 7 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 427.0
If we take 693 away from 707, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 149 / 99

Advancing to step 6:
99 can be fit into 149 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4271.0
Deduct 99 from 149 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
99 goes into 500 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4271.5
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 50 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4271.5
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 9:
500 divided by 99 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4271.505
If we subtract 495 from 500, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 10:
50 divided by 99 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4271.505
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
99 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4271.50505
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 495 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
99 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4271.50505
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
99 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4271.5050505
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 495 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 50 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4271.5050505
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4271.5050505 with a balance of 5e-08.
