854611 ÷ 79 
We want to divide 854611 by 79.

On to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 85 / 79

On to step 2:
If we divide 85 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 79 from 85 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 79

Step 3:
79 can be fit into 64 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 64, we end up with 64.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 646 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 646 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we subtract 632 from 646, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 79

Step 5:
If we divide 141 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 62.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1081.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 79 from 141.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 62 and repeat the process: 621 / 79

Step 6:
621 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10817.0
If we subtract 553 from 621, we 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.

On to step 7:
79 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10817.8
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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10817.86
Subtract 474 from 480 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 9:
79 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10817.86
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 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 10:
79 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10817.8607
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 553 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
79 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10817.86075
Subtracting 395 from 470 leaves us with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
79 can be fit into 750 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10817.860759
If we take 711 away from 750, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
79 can be fit into 390 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10817.8607594
If we take 316 away from 390, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 740 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 29.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10817.86075949
If we take 711 away from 740, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10817.86075949 and a remainder of 2.9e-08.
