885972 ÷ 79 
Our goal is to divide 885972 by 79.

Step 1:
79 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 79

On to step 2:
When dividing 88 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 79 away from 88, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 95 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
79 can be fit into 95 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 79 away from 95, we end up with 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
79 can be fit into 169 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 112.0
Deduct 158 from 169 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 117 / 79

Step 5:
If we divide 117 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1121.0
Deduct 79 from 117 and we're left with 38.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 382 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
382 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 66.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11214.0
Subtracting 316 from 382 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
660 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11214.8
If we take 632 away from 660, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
79 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 43.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11214.83
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.

On to step 9:
79 goes into 430 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11214.835
If we subtract 395 from 430, we get 35.
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 10:
When dividing 350 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11214.8354
If we take 316 away from 350, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 11:
79 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11214.83544
Subtract 316 from 340 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 11214.83544 with a remainder of 2.4e-05.
