260429 ÷ 79 
We want to divide 260429 by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 79 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 79

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 260 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 260 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 237 away from 260, we end up with 23.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 234 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 234 by 79, we get 2 with a remainder of 76.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Deduct 158 from 234 and we're left with 76.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 76, then repeat: 762 / 79

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 762 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 51.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 329.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 711 from 762.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 519 / 79

Step 6:
519 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3296.0
If we subtract 474 from 519, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 450 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3296.5
Subtracting 395 from 450 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
79 goes into 550 6 times with a remainder of 76.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3296.56
Subtract 474 from 550 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 760 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 49.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3296.569
Deduct 711 from 760 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
490 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3296.5696
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
160 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3296.56962
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.

On to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3296.56962
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3296.5696202
If we take 158 away from 200, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 14:
79 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3296.56962025
Subtract 395 from 420 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3296.56962025, with a leftover of 2.5e-08.
