We divide 3312872 by 579
We're looking to find how many times 579 goes into 3312872.

Let's proceed to step 1:
579 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 33 / 579

On to step 2:
The number 579 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 33, we end up with 33.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 331 / 579

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 579 fits into 331 0 times, leaving a remainder of 331.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 331, we get 331.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 331, then repeat: 3312 / 579

Let's proceed to step 4:
3312 divided by 579 is 5 with a remainder of 417.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 2895 from 3312 to get 417.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 417, then repeat: 4178 / 579

Going ahead to step 5:
579 goes into 4178 7 times with a remainder of 125.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 4053 from 4178 to get 125.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 125, then repeat: 1257 / 579

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 1257 by 579, we get 2 with a remainder of 99.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 572.0
Subtract 1158 from 1257 to get 99.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 99, then repeat: 992 / 579

Moving on to step 7:
The number 579 fits into 992 1 times, leaving a remainder of 413.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5721.0
Deduct 579 from 992 and we're left with 413.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
4130 divided by 579 is 7 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5721.7
If we subtract 4053 from 4130, we get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
770 divided by 579 is 1 with a remainder of 191.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5721.71
Deduct 579 from 770 and we're left with 191.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1910, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 1910 by 579, we get 3 and a remainder of 173.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5721.713
If we subtract 1737 from 1910, we get 173.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1730, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 579 fits into 1730 2 times, leaving a remainder of 572.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5721.7132
Subtract 1158 from 1730 to get 572.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
579 goes into 5720 9 times with a remainder of 509.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5721.71329
Deduct 5211 from 5720 and we're left with 509.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5090, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
5090 divided by 579 is 8 with a remainder of 458.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5721.713298
Subtract 4632 from 5090 to get 458.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4580, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 579 fits into 4580 7 times, leaving a remainder of 527.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5721.7132987
If we subtract 4053 from 4580, we get 527.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 5270 by 579, we get 9 and a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5721.71329879
If we take 5211 away from 5270, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

The final result is 5721.71329879 with a remainder of 5.9e-08.
