We look at the division of 988453 by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 988453.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 79 from 98.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 198 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 198 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 158 from 198 and we're left with 40.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 404 / 79

Step 4:
When dividing 404 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 9.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.0
Deduct 395 from 404 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 95 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 95 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1251.0
If we subtract 79 from 95, we get 16.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 163 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 163 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12512.0
Deduct 158 from 163 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
79 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12512.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 500 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12512.06
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.

On to step 9:
79 can be fit into 260 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12512.063
Subtracting 237 from 260 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
79 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12512.0632
If we subtract 158 from 230, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 720 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12512.06329
Subtract 711 from 720 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
79 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12512.063291
Subtracting 79 from 90 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
110 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 31.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12512.0632911
If we take 79 away from 110, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12512.0632911 and a remainder of 3.1e-07.
