Let's divide 208908 by 79
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 208908.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 20 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 208 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
79 goes into 208 2 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 158 away from 208, we end up with 50.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 509 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
79 can be fit into 509 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 474 from 509 to get 35.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 350 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
350 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 264.0
If we subtract 316 from 350, we get 34.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 348 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 can be fit into 348 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2644.0
Subtract 316 from 348 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 320 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2644.4
Subtract 316 from 320 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2644.4
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2644.405
Subtract 395 from 400 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2644.405
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2644.40506
If we take 474 away from 500, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
79 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2644.405063
If we take 237 away from 260, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 230 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2644.4050632
If we subtract 158 from 230, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
720 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2644.40506329
If we subtract 711 from 720, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2644.40506329 with a remaining 9e-09.
