742754 divided by 79 
Our goal is to divide 742754 by 79.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 79

On to step 2:
74 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 74.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 74, we get 74.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 742 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 742 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 711 from 742.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 317 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 317 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 94.0
Subtract 316 from 317 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 79

Step 5:
79 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 940.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 154 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
79 goes into 154 1 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9401.0
If we take 79 away from 154, we end up 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.

On to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 750 9 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9401.9
Deduct 711 from 750 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 79 fits into 390 4 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9401.94
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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9401.949
Subtract 711 from 740 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
79 can be fit into 290 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9401.9493
Subtract 237 from 290 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
79 can be fit into 530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9401.94936
If we take 474 away from 530, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
560 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9401.949367
If we subtract 553 from 560, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 70 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9401.949367
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
700 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 68.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9401.94936708
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 632 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9401.94936708 with a remaining 6.8e-08.
