287017 ÷ 79 
We want to divide 287017 by 79.

Advancing to step 1:
79 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 287 / 79

On to step 3:
79 can be fit into 287 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 237 from 287 leaves us with 50.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 500 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
The number 79 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtracting 474 from 500 leaves us with 26.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 261 / 79

On to step 5:
79 goes into 261 3 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 363.0
If we take 237 away from 261, we end up with 24.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 247 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 247 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 10.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3633.0
Subtract 237 from 247 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 100 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 21.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3633.1
Subtracting 79 from 100 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
210 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 52.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3633.12
Subtract 158 from 210 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 520 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3633.126
If we subtract 474 from 520, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 460 5 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3633.1265
Subtracting 395 from 460 leaves us with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 79 fits into 650 8 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3633.12658
Subtracting 632 from 650 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 180 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3633.126582
If we subtract 158 from 180, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
79 can be fit into 220 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3633.1265822
If we take 158 away from 220, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3633.1265822 with a balance of 6.2e-07.
