Going ahead to step 5:
The number 979 fits into 3700 3 times, leaving a remainder of 763.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 43.0
Deduct 2937 from 3700 and we're left with 763.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 763, then repeat: 7639 / 979

Advancing to step 6:
7639 divided by 979 is 7 with a remainder of 786.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 437.0
Subtracting 6853 from 7639 leaves us with 786.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 786 and continue with: 7862 / 979

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 7862 by 979, we get 8 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4378.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 7832 from 7862.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 306 / 979

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 979 fits into 306 0 times, leaving a remainder of 306.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43780.0
If we take 0 away from 306, we end up with 306.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3060, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
979 goes into 3060 3 times with a remainder of 123.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 43780.3
Deduct 2937 from 3060 and we're left with 123.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 1230 by 979, we get 1 with a remainder of 251.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43780.31
Deduct 979 from 1230 and we're left with 251.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2510, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 2510 by 979, we get 2 with a remainder of 552.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43780.312
The remainder is 552 after subtracting 1958 from 2510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5520, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
979 can be fit into 5520 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 625.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 43780.3125
Subtract 4895 from 5520 to get 625.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6250, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 6250 by 979, we get 6 and a remainder of 376.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43780.31256
Subtracting 5874 from 6250 leaves us with 376.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 3760 by 979, we get 3 and a remainder of 823.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43780.312563
Subtract 2937 from 3760 to get 823.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
979 can be fit into 8230 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 398.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43780.3125638
Subtracting 7832 from 8230 leaves us with 398.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3980, and continue the process.

Step 16:
979 can be fit into 3980 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43780.31256384
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 3916 from 3980.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 43780.31256384 with a balance of 6.4e-08.
