Let's divide 398484 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 398484.

On to step 1:
79 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 39 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 0 from 39.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 398 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 398 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 395 from 398, we get 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 79

On to step 4:
79 can be fit into 34 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtract 0 from 34 to get 34.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 348 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 348 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 504.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 316 from 348.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 324 / 79

Step 6:
324 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5044.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 316 from 324.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
79 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5044.1
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 79 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
10 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5044.1
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
79 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5044.101
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 79 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 10:
79 can be fit into 210 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5044.1012
If we subtract 158 from 210, we 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 520 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 46.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5044.10126
Subtracting 474 from 520 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 12:
460 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5044.101265
Deduct 395 from 460 and we're left with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Step 13:
79 goes into 650 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5044.1012658
If we subtract 632 from 650, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
180 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5044.10126582
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 158 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5044.10126582, and the remainder is 2.2e-08.
