We divide 78229 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 78229.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 goes into 78 0 times with a remainder of 78.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 78, we end up with 78.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 78, then carry on: 782 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 782 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 71.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 711 from 782, we get 71.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 712 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
79 goes into 712 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 99.0
If we take 711 away from 712, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 19 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 990.0
Subtract 0 from 19 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 190 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 990.2
If we subtract 158 from 190, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
79 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 990.24
Subtracting 316 from 320 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 40 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 990.24
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
79 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 990.2405
If we subtract 395 from 400, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 990.2405
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 990.240506
Deduct 474 from 500 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 990.2405063
Subtracting 237 from 260 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
79 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 990.24050632
Subtracting 158 from 230 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 990.24050632 and a remainder of 7.2e-08.
