We divide 601258 by 79
Our goal is to divide 601258 by 79.

Going ahead to step 1:
79 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 79

Step 2:
79 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 60, then repeat: 601 / 79

Advancing to step 3:
79 can be fit into 601 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 553 from 601, we get 48.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 482 / 79

On to step 4:
482 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 474 from 482.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 79

Let's proceed to step 5:
85 divided by 79 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 761.0
Subtracting 79 from 85 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 68 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
79 goes into 68 0 times with a remainder of 68.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7610.0
Subtracting 0 from 68 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
The number 79 fits into 680 8 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7610.8
Subtract 632 from 680 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 79, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7610.86
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 474 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
79 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7610.86
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us 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:
If we divide 600 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 47.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7610.8607
If we subtract 553 from 600, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 11:
79 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7610.86075
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.

Moving on to step 12:
79 can be fit into 750 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7610.860759
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 13:
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: 7610.8607594
Deduct 316 from 390 and we're left 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:
79 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 29.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7610.86075949
If we take 711 away from 740, we end up 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 result is 7610.86075949 with a remainder of 2.9e-08.
