We're dividing 972381 by 79 
We want to figure out the number of times 972381 can be divided by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 79 from 97 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 182 / 79

Step 3:
79 goes into 182 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 158 from 182 to get 24.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 243 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
79 can be fit into 243 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 123.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 237 from 243.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 79

Step 5:
79 goes into 68 0 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1230.0
Deduct 0 from 68 and we're left with 68.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 681 / 79

On to step 6:
681 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12308.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 632 from 681.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
79 goes into 490 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12308.6
Subtracting 474 from 490 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12308.62
Subtract 158 from 160 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
79 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12308.62
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12308.6202
Deduct 158 from 200 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
420 divided by 79 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12308.62025
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 395 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
79 can be fit into 250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12308.620253
Subtracting 237 from 250 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
79 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12308.6202531
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 79 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 510 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12308.62025316
Deduct 474 from 510 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12308.62025316 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
