We look at the division of 389811 by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 389811.

On to step 1:
79 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
79 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 38, we end up with 38.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 389 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
79 goes into 389 4 times with a remainder of 73.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 316 from 389 leaves us with 73.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 738 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 738 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we subtract 711 from 738, we get 27.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 271 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
79 goes into 271 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 493.0
Deduct 237 from 271 and we're left with 34.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 341 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
341 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4934.0
Deduct 316 from 341 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4934.3
Subtracting 237 from 250 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 8:
130 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 51.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4934.31
If we take 79 away from 130, we end up with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 510 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4934.316
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 474 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4934.3164
If we take 316 away from 360, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4934.31645
If we take 395 away from 440, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 450 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4934.316455
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 395 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4934.316455, and the remainder is 5.5e-06.
