We divide 782988 by 79
Our goal is to divide 782988 by 79.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 79

On to step 2:
79 goes into 78 0 times with a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 78 to get 78.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 782 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
79 goes into 782 9 times with a remainder of 71.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 711 from 782.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 719 / 79

Step 4:
If we divide 719 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 99.0
Subtract 711 from 719 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 88 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 991.0
If we subtract 79 from 88, we get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 79

On to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9911.0
If we subtract 79 from 98, we 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:
When dividing 190 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9911.2
If we subtract 158 from 190, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
79 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9911.24
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 316 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
79 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9911.24
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:
When dividing 400 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9911.2405
Subtracting 395 from 400 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 50 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9911.2405
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us 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.

On to step 12:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9911.240506
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 474 from 500.
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:
The number 79 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9911.2405063
Deduct 237 from 260 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
230 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9911.24050632
Deduct 158 from 230 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9911.24050632 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
