879869 ÷ 28 
We want to divide 879869 by 28.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 28 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 28

Moving on to step 2:
28 goes into 87 3 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 84 from 87 to get 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
28 can be fit into 39 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 28 from 39.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 28

Moving on to step 4:
28 can be fit into 118 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 314.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 112 from 118.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 66 / 28

Step 5:
If we divide 66 by 28, we get 2 and a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3142.0
Subtract 56 from 66 to get 10.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 109 / 28

On to step 6:
28 goes into 109 3 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31423.0
If we take 84 away from 109, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 28 fits into 250 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31423.8
If we take 224 away from 250, we end up 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.

Step 8:
The number 28 fits into 260 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31423.89
Subtract 252 from 260 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
80 divided by 28 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31423.892
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
28 goes into 240 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31423.8928
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 28, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31423.89285
If we take 140 away from 160, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 200 by 28, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31423.892857
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 196 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 40 by 28, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31423.8928571
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 28 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
120 divided by 28 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31423.89285714
Subtract 112 from 120 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 31423.89285714 with a balance of 8e-09.
