We're dividing 423477 by 79 
We want to divide 423477 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 79

On to step 2:
If we divide 42 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 42 leaves us with 42.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 423 / 79

Step 3:
423 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 395 from 423 to get 28.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 284 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
79 can be fit into 284 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we take 237 away from 284, we end up with 47.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 477 / 79

On to step 5:
When dividing 477 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 3.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 536.0
Subtract 474 from 477 to get 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 79

Step 6:
79 can be fit into 37 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5360.0
Deduct 0 from 37 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
79 can be fit into 370 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5360.4
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 316 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 can be fit into 540 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5360.46
Subtract 474 from 540 to get 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 9:
79 can be fit into 660 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5360.468
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 632 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 10:
79 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5360.4683
If we subtract 237 from 280, we get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
79 can be fit into 430 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5360.46835
Deduct 395 from 430 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 350 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5360.468354
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 340 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5360.4683544
If we take 316 away from 340, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 5360.4683544, with a leftover of 2.4e-07.
