577986 ÷ 79 
We want to divide 577986 by 79.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 57 0 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 57 leaves us with 57.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 577 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
79 can be fit into 577 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 553 from 577.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 249 / 79

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 249 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 237 from 249.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 79

On to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 128 1 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 731.0
Subtract 79 from 128 to get 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 79

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 can be fit into 496 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7316.0
If we take 474 away from 496, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 62.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7316.2
Subtracting 158 from 220 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
79 goes into 620 7 times with a remainder of 67.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7316.27
Subtracting 553 from 620 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Step 9:
670 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 38.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7316.278
Subtracting 632 from 670 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 380 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7316.2784
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 316 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
79 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7316.27848
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.

Moving on to step 12:
80 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7316.278481
Deduct 79 from 80 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 13:
10 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7316.278481
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
79 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7316.27848101
If we take 79 away from 100, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 7316.27848101 and a remainder of 2.1e-08.
