We're dividing 998758 by 79 
Our goal is to divide 998758 by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
79 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
79 can be fit into 99 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 79 from 99.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 208 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
79 can be fit into 208 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 158 from 208.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 507 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 507 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
If we take 474 away from 507, we end up with 33.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 335 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 335 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1264.0
Deduct 316 from 335 and we're left with 19.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 198 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 198 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12642.0
Deduct 158 from 198 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
79 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12642.5
Deduct 395 from 400 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
79 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12642.5
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 9:
500 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12642.506
Subtracting 474 from 500 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
260 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12642.5063
Subtract 237 from 260 to 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.

Step 11:
79 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12642.50632
Subtracting 158 from 230 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 720 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12642.506329
If we take 711 away from 720, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
90 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12642.5063291
Subtract 79 from 90 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 110 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12642.50632911
Subtracting 79 from 110 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12642.50632911 and a remainder of 3.1e-08.
