400964 ÷ 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 400964.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 400 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
79 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 395 from 400 to get 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
59 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 59.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtracting 0 from 59 leaves us with 59.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 596 / 79

On to step 5:
79 goes into 596 7 times with a remainder of 43.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 507.0
Subtracting 553 from 596 leaves us with 43.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 434 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 434 5 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5075.0
Subtract 395 from 434 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
79 goes into 390 4 times with a remainder of 74.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5075.4
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 316 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 740 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5075.49
Deduct 711 from 740 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 9:
79 can be fit into 290 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5075.493
Deduct 237 from 290 and we're left with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
79 can be fit into 530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5075.4936
If we take 474 away from 530, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
79 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5075.49367
Subtracting 553 from 560 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5075.49367
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 79 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5075.4936708
Subtracting 632 from 700 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
79 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5075.49367088
If we take 632 away from 680, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 5075.49367088 with a remainder of 4.8e-08.
