We're dividing 879497 by 83 
Let's see how many times 83 fits into 879497.

Step 1:
8 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 83

Moving on to step 2:
83 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 83 from 87.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 83

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 49 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 49, we end up with 49.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 494 / 83

On to step 4:
83 can be fit into 494 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 105.0
Subtracting 415 from 494 leaves us with 79.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 799 / 83

Moving on to step 5:
799 divided by 83 is 9 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1059.0
If we take 747 away from 799, we end up with 52.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 527 / 83

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 83 fits into 527 6 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10596.0
Subtract 498 from 527 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 290 by 83, we get 3 and a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10596.3
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 249 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 8:
83 goes into 410 4 times with a remainder of 78.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10596.34
If we subtract 332 from 410, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Step 9:
780 divided by 83 is 9 with a remainder of 33.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10596.349
If we take 747 away from 780, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 330 by 83, we get 3 and a remainder of 81.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 10596.3493
Deduct 249 from 330 and we're left with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 810 by 83, we get 9 with a remainder of 63.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10596.34939
Subtract 747 from 810 to get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 630 by 83, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10596.349397
If we take 581 away from 630, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 83 fits into 490 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10596.3493975
Subtract 415 from 490 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 83 fits into 750 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10596.34939759
Subtracting 747 from 750 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10596.34939759 with a remaining 3e-09.
