872836 divided by 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 872836.

On to step 1:
8 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 79 from 87 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 82 / 79

On to step 3:
79 goes into 82 1 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 79 from 82 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
38 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 110.0
Subtract 0 from 38 to get 38.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 383 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 383 4 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1104.0
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 316 from 383.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 676 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
676 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11048.0
Deduct 632 from 676 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11048.5
Subtracting 395 from 440 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
450 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11048.55
If we take 395 away from 450, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11048.55 and a remainder of 0.055.
