279138 divided by 70 
We want to divide 279138 by 70.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 70 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 70

Moving on to step 2:
The number 70 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 70

On to step 3:
70 can be fit into 279 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 210 from 279 to get 69.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 691 / 70

On to step 4:
691 divided by 70 is 9 with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 630 from 691 leaves us with 61.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 613 / 70

Step 5:
613 divided by 70 is 8 with a remainder of 53.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 398.0
If we take 560 away from 613, we end up with 53.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 538 / 70

Moving on to step 6:
The number 70 fits into 538 7 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3987.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 490 from 538.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 70 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3987.6
If we subtract 420 from 480, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 70 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3987.68
Subtract 560 from 600 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 9:
70 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3987.685
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 350 from 400.
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 10:
The number 70 fits into 500 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3987.6857
Subtracting 490 from 500 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
70 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3987.68571
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 70 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 12:
300 divided by 70 is 4 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3987.685714
If we subtract 280 from 300, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
200 divided by 70 is 2 with a remainder of 60.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3987.6857142
Subtract 140 from 200 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 70 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3987.68571428
If we subtract 560 from 600, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3987.68571428, and the remainder is 4e-08.
