We look at the division of 299400 by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 299400.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 29 leaves us with 29.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 299 / 79

On to step 3:
79 can be fit into 299 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 237 from 299 leaves us with 62.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 62 and continue: 624 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
79 goes into 624 7 times with a remainder of 71.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtract 553 from 624 to get 71.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 710 / 79

On to step 5:
710 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 378.0
If we take 632 away from 710, we end up with 78.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 78, then repeat: 780 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
79 can be fit into 780 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3789.0
If we subtract 711 from 780, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 690 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 58.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3789.8
Deduct 632 from 690 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
79 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3789.87
Deduct 553 from 580 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3789.873
If we subtract 237 from 270, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
79 can be fit into 330 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3789.8734
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 316 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
79 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3789.87341
If we take 79 away from 140, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 610 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 57.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3789.873417
If we subtract 553 from 610, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 570 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3789.8734177
Subtracting 553 from 570 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3789.8734177, with a leftover of 1.7e-07.
