We divide 490172 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 490172.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
49 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 49 and continue with: 490 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 490 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 474 from 490 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 161 / 79

On to step 4:
If we divide 161 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 62.0
If we subtract 158 from 161, we get 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 79

Step 5:
If we divide 37 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 37.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 620.0
Subtracting 0 from 37 leaves us with 37.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 372 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 can be fit into 372 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6204.0
If we subtract 316 from 372, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
79 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6204.7
Subtracting 553 from 560 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 70 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6204.7
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
700 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 68.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6204.708
Subtract 632 from 700 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
79 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6204.7088
If we take 632 away from 680, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6204.7088, with a leftover of 0.00048.
