We look at the division of 161666 by 79 
Our goal is to divide 161666 by 79.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 79

Step 2:
16 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 161 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 161 by 79, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 158 away from 161, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 79

Step 4:
The number 79 fits into 36 0 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 36 to get 36.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 366 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 366 by 79, we get 4 with a remainder of 50.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 204.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 316 from 366.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 506 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 506 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2046.0
If we subtract 474 from 506, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 320 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2046.4
Subtracting 316 from 320 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2046.4
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
79 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2046.405
Subtract 395 from 400 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 50 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2046.405
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
79 goes into 500 6 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2046.40506
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 474 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2046.405063
Deduct 237 from 260 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
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: 2046.4050632
If we take 158 away from 230, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
720 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2046.40506329
Subtracting 711 from 720 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2046.40506329 with a balance of 9e-09.
