We divide 147863 by 79
We want to figure out the number of times 147863 can be divided by 79.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 0 from 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 79

On to step 3:
79 can be fit into 147 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 79 from 147 to get 68.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 688 / 79

Step 4:
When dividing 688 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 632 from 688 leaves us with 56.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 56, then carry on: 566 / 79

On to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 566 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 553 from 566.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 133 / 79

Step 6:
The number 79 fits into 133 1 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1871.0
Subtracting 79 from 133 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 540 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1871.6
If we subtract 474 from 540, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 660 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1871.68
Subtracting 632 from 660 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
79 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1871.683
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 237 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 430 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1871.6835
Subtract 395 from 430 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 350 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1871.68354
Subtract 316 from 350 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
79 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1871.683544
Subtracting 316 from 340 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 1871.683544 with a balance of 2.4e-06.
