We're dividing 127717 by 79 
We want to divide 127717 by 79.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 79

Step 2:
When dividing 12 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 79

Step 3:
When dividing 127 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 79 from 127.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
487 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 474 from 487.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 79

On to step 5:
If we divide 131 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 52.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 161.0
Subtract 79 from 131 to get 52.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 527 / 79

On to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 527 6 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1616.0
If we take 474 away from 527, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
530 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1616.6
Subtract 474 from 530 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 560 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1616.67
Subtracting 553 from 560 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
70 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1616.67
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 79 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1616.6708
Deduct 632 from 700 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 11:
79 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1616.67088
Deduct 632 from 680 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 1616.67088 with a remainder of 4.8e-05.
