842998 divided by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 842998.

Step 1:
79 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 79

On to step 2:
84 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 79 from 84 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 79

On to step 3:
The number 79 fits into 52 0 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 529 / 79

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 529 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 55.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 106.0
If we take 474 away from 529, we end up with 55.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 559 / 79

On to step 5:
559 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1067.0
If we take 553 away from 559, we end up with 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
79 goes into 68 0 times with a remainder of 68.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10670.0
If we take 0 away from 68, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
79 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10670.8
If we take 632 away from 680, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10670.86
If we take 474 away from 480, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 60 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10670.86
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 79 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10670.8607
Subtracting 553 from 600 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 470 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10670.86075
Subtract 395 from 470 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
750 divided by 79 is 9 with a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10670.860759
If we subtract 711 from 750, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 79 fits into 390 4 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10670.8607594
Subtracting 316 from 390 leaves us with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 79 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10670.86075949
Subtracting 711 from 740 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 10670.86075949, with a leftover of 2.9e-08.
