We divide 296707 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 296707.

Let's proceed to step 1:
79 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 29 0 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 296 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
The number 79 fits into 296 3 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 237 from 296 leaves us with 59.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 597 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
597 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we subtract 553 from 597, we get 44.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 440 / 79

Step 5:
When dividing 440 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 375.0
Subtract 395 from 440 to get 45.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 457 / 79

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 457 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3755.0
Subtracting 395 from 457 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
79 can be fit into 620 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3755.7
If we subtract 553 from 620, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 670 by 79, we get 8 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3755.78
Subtract 632 from 670 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
380 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3755.784
Deduct 316 from 380 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
79 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3755.7848
If we subtract 632 from 640, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
79 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3755.78481
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 79 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 10 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3755.78481
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
79 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3755.7848101
Subtracting 79 from 100 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 210 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3755.78481012
Deduct 158 from 210 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3755.78481012 and a remainder of 5.2e-08.
