Let's divide 258898 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 258898.

Step 1:
79 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
79 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 258 / 79

On to step 3:
79 can be fit into 258 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 237 from 258 to get 21.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 218 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
79 goes into 218 2 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 158 from 218, we get 60.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 609 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 609 7 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 327.0
Subtracting 553 from 609 leaves us with 56.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 568 / 79

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 568 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3277.0
Subtract 553 from 568 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 150 1 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3277.1
If we take 79 away from 150, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
710 divided by 79 is 8 with a remainder of 78.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3277.18
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 632 from 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 780 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 69.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3277.189
Deduct 711 from 780 and we're left with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
79 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 58.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3277.1898
Deduct 632 from 690 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
79 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3277.18987
Subtract 553 from 580 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 270 by 79, we get 3 with a remainder of 33.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3277.189873
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 237 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
330 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 14.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3277.1898734
If we take 316 away from 330, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
79 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3277.18987341
If we subtract 79 from 140, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3277.18987341, and the remainder is 6.1e-08.
