Let's divide 687264 by 79
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 687264.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 79

Going ahead to step 2:
79 goes into 68 0 times with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 68, we end up with 68.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 687 / 79

On to step 3:
687 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 55.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 632 from 687.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 552 / 79

On to step 4:
552 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 78.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 86.0
Subtracting 474 from 552 leaves us with 78.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 786 / 79

On to step 5:
786 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 75.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 869.0
If we subtract 711 from 786, we get 75.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 75, then carry on: 754 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
79 goes into 754 9 times with a remainder of 43.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8699.0
Subtracting 711 from 754 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
430 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8699.5
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 395 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
350 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 34.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8699.54
Subtracting 316 from 350 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
340 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8699.544
If we subtract 316 from 340, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8699.544 with a balance of 0.0024.
