Let's divide 4491001 by 879
We want to divide 4491001 by 879.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 879 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 879

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 44 by 879, we get 0 and a remainder of 44.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 44, we get 44.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 449 / 879

Step 3:
The number 879 fits into 449 0 times, leaving a remainder of 449.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 449 after subtracting 0 from 449.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 449, then repeat: 4491 / 879

Going ahead to step 4:
879 can be fit into 4491 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 4395 from 4491 to get 96.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 96, then repeat: 960 / 879

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 960 by 879, we get 1 and a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtract 879 from 960 to get 81.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 81 and continue: 810 / 879

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 810 by 879, we get 0 and a remainder of 810.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 510.0
The remainder is 810 after subtracting 0 from 810.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 810 and continue: 8101 / 879

Going ahead to step 7:
8101 divided by 879 is 9 with a remainder of 190.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5109.0
If we take 7911 away from 8101, we end up with 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 1900 by 879, we get 2 and a remainder of 142.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5109.2
Subtracting 1758 from 1900 leaves us with 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 1420 by 879, we get 1 with a remainder of 541.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5109.21
Deduct 879 from 1420 and we're left with 541.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
879 can be fit into 5410 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5109.216
If we take 5274 away from 5410, we end up with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
879 goes into 1360 1 times with a remainder of 481.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5109.2161
If we subtract 879 from 1360, we get 481.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 4810 by 879, we get 5 and a remainder of 415.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5109.21615
If we subtract 4395 from 4810, we get 415.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
4150 divided by 879 is 4 with a remainder of 634.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5109.216154
If we take 3516 away from 4150, we end up with 634.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 6340 by 879, we get 7 and a remainder of 187.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5109.2161547
If we take 6153 away from 6340, we end up with 187.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1870, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 879 fits into 1870 2 times, leaving a remainder of 112.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5109.21615472
If we subtract 1758 from 1870, we get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5109.21615472 and a remainder of 1.12e-07.
