We divide 218255 by 79
We want to figure out the number of times 218255 can be divided by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 79

Step 2:
79 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 218 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
218 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 158 from 218, we get 60.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 602 / 79

On to step 4:
79 goes into 602 7 times with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 553 from 602.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 495 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 495 6 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 276.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 474 from 495.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 215 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 can be fit into 215 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2762.0
Deduct 158 from 215 and we're left with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 570 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2762.7
Subtract 553 from 570 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
170 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2762.72
Subtracting 158 from 170 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
120 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 41.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2762.721
Subtracting 79 from 120 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
410 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2762.7215
Deduct 395 from 410 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 150 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2762.72151
If we take 79 away from 150, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 710 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 78.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2762.721518
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 632 from 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 79 fits into 780 9 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2762.7215189
If we take 711 away from 780, we end up with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 14:
79 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 58.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2762.72151898
Subtracting 632 from 690 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2762.72151898 with a remaining 5.8e-08.
