We look at the division of 596818 by 79 
We want to figure out the number of times 596818 can be divided by 79.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 79

Step 2:
If we divide 59 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 59, we get 59.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 59 and continue with: 596 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
596 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 553 away from 596, we end up with 43.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 438 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
79 goes into 438 5 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 75.0
If we take 395 away from 438, we end up with 43.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 431 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 431 5 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 755.0
If we subtract 395 from 431, we get 36.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 368 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 368 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 52.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7554.0
Subtract 316 from 368 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 520 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7554.6
If we take 474 away from 520, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 can be fit into 460 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7554.65
Subtract 395 from 460 to get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 650 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 18.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7554.658
Subtract 632 from 650 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
79 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7554.6582
If we take 158 away from 180, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7554.65822
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 158 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Our division results in 7554.65822 with a remaining 6.2e-05.
