964872 divided by 79 
We want to divide 964872 by 79.

Advancing to step 1:
79 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 96 / 79

Step 2:
If we divide 96 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 79 from 96 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 174 / 79

On to step 3:
When dividing 174 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 158 away from 174, we end up with 16.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 168 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
79 goes into 168 2 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122.0
Subtract 158 from 168 to get 10.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 107 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 107 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1221.0
Subtracting 79 from 107 leaves us with 28.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 282 / 79

Step 6:
If we divide 282 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12213.0
Subtract 237 from 282 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 450 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12213.5
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 395 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 550 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12213.56
If we take 474 away from 550, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
760 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12213.569
Subtracting 711 from 760 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 490 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12213.5696
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 474 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
160 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12213.56962
Deduct 158 from 160 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12213.56962
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
79 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12213.5696202
Deduct 158 from 200 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
79 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12213.56962025
If we subtract 395 from 420, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12213.56962025 with a remaining 2.5e-08.
