We look at the division of 540708 by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 540708.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
54 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 540 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
The number 79 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 474 from 540 to get 66.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 66, then repeat: 667 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 667 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 632 away from 667, we end up with 35.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 350 / 79

On to step 5:
When dividing 350 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 684.0
If we take 316 away from 350, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 348 / 79

Step 6:
79 goes into 348 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6844.0
Subtracting 316 from 348 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
320 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6844.4
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: 6844.4
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 9:
79 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6844.405
If we take 395 away from 400, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
50 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6844.405
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6844.40506
Subtract 474 from 500 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
79 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6844.405063
If we subtract 237 from 260, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
79 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6844.4050632
If we take 158 away from 230, we end up 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 720 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6844.40506329
Subtract 711 from 720 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6844.40506329 and a remainder of 9e-09.
