We look at the division of 120740 by 79 
Our goal is to divide 120740 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
79 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 120 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
120 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 41.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 79 from 120.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 417 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
79 can be fit into 417 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 395 from 417.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 224 / 79

Step 5:
If we divide 224 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 66.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 152.0
If we take 158 away from 224, we end up with 66.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 66 and repeat the process: 660 / 79

On to step 6:
If we divide 660 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1528.0
If we subtract 632 from 660, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 280 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 43.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1528.3
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 237 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 430 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1528.35
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 395 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
79 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1528.354
Deduct 316 from 350 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
79 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1528.3544
Deduct 316 from 340 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1528.3544 with a balance of 0.00024.
