987970 divided by 79 
Let's see how many times 79 fits into 987970.

Moving on to step 1:
79 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 79

Advancing to step 2:
The number 79 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 79 from 98 leaves us with 19.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 197 / 79

On to step 3:
197 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 158 from 197, we get 39.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 399 / 79

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 399 by 79, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.0
If we take 395 away from 399, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 47 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 47.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1250.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 470 / 79

Step 6:
79 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12505.0
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 395 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 750 by 79, we get 9 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 12505.9
Subtracting 711 from 750 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
390 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12505.94
If we subtract 316 from 390, we get 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 9:
79 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12505.949
Deduct 711 from 740 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 290 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12505.9493
Subtract 237 from 290 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 530 by 79, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12505.94936
If we take 474 away from 530, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
79 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12505.949367
If we subtract 553 from 560, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 70 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12505.949367
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 79 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12505.94936708
Subtract 632 from 700 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12505.94936708 with a balance of 6.8e-08.
