We look at the division of 858956 by 79 
We want to divide 858956 by 79.

Advancing to step 1:
79 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 85 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 79 from 85, we get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
The number 79 fits into 68 0 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 68 leaves us with 68.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 68, then repeat: 689 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
79 can be fit into 689 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 108.0
Deduct 632 from 689 and we're left with 57.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 57, then repeat: 575 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
79 goes into 575 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1087.0
If we take 553 away from 575, we end up with 22.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 226 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 226 2 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10872.0
Subtract 158 from 226 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 680 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10872.8
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 632 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10872.86
Subtracting 474 from 480 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 60 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10872.86
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 10:
600 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10872.8607
If we take 553 away from 600, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
79 can be fit into 470 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10872.86075
If we subtract 395 from 470, we get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 750 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10872.860759
Deduct 711 from 750 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 390 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10872.8607594
Deduct 316 from 390 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 79 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10872.86075949
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.

The final outcome is 10872.86075949, with a leftover of 2.9e-08.
