We divide 422541 by 79
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 422541.

Going ahead to step 1:
79 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 79

Step 2:
79 can be fit into 42 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 0 from 42.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 422 / 79

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 79 fits into 422 5 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 395 from 422.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 275 / 79

On to step 4:
275 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 237 from 275.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 384 / 79

Advancing to step 5:
384 divided by 79 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 534.0
Deduct 316 from 384 and we're left with 68.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 681 / 79

On to step 6:
When dividing 681 by 79, we get 8 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5348.0
Subtracting 632 from 681 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
79 can be fit into 490 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5348.6
If we subtract 474 from 490, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 79 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5348.62
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 9:
When dividing 20 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5348.62
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
200 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5348.6202
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 11:
79 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5348.62025
If we subtract 395 from 420, we 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 79 fits into 250 3 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5348.620253
If we take 237 away from 250, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 13:
130 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5348.6202531
If we subtract 79 from 130, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
79 goes into 510 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5348.62025316
Subtract 474 from 510 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5348.62025316 and a remainder of 3.6e-08.
