We look at the division of 438074 by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 438074.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 43 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 can be fit into 43 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 43 leaves us with 43.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 438 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 438 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 43.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 395 from 438, we get 43.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 430 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 430 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 395 away from 430, we end up with 35.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 357 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
79 goes into 357 4 times with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 554.0
Subtract 316 from 357 to get 41.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 414 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 goes into 414 5 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5545.0
Subtract 395 from 414 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
190 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5545.2
Subtracting 158 from 190 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
320 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5545.24
If we take 316 away from 320, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5545.24
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
79 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5545.2405
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 395 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 50 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5545.2405
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5545.240506
Deduct 474 from 500 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
260 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5545.2405063
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.

Step 14:
When dividing 230 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5545.24050632
Subtract 158 from 230 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 5545.24050632, and the remainder is 7.2e-08.
