984460 divided by 79 
We want to divide 984460 by 79.

On to step 1:
79 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
98 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 79 from 98.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 194 / 79

Step 3:
194 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 158 from 194 to get 36.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 364 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 364 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 124.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 316 from 364.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 486 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
486 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1246.0
Subtracting 474 from 486 leaves us with 12.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 120 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 120 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12461.0
Deduct 79 from 120 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
79 can be fit into 410 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12461.5
Subtract 395 from 410 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 71.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12461.51
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 79 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Step 9:
710 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 78.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12461.518
Deduct 632 from 710 and we're left with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
79 goes into 780 9 times with a remainder of 69.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12461.5189
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 711 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 690 8 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12461.51898
If we take 632 away from 690, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
580 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12461.518987
If we subtract 553 from 580, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 270 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12461.5189873
Deduct 237 from 270 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 14:
79 can be fit into 330 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12461.51898734
If we subtract 316 from 330, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12461.51898734 and a remainder of 1.4e-08.
