71821301 divided by 279 
Our goal is to divide 71821301 by 279.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 279, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 279

On to step 2:
279 goes into 71 0 times with a remainder of 71.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 0 from 71.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 718 / 279

Moving on to step 3:
279 can be fit into 718 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 160.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 558 from 718 to get 160.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 160 and repeat the process: 1602 / 279

Step 4:
279 goes into 1602 5 times with a remainder of 207.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 207 after subtracting 1395 from 1602.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 207 and repeat the process: 2071 / 279

On to step 5:
279 can be fit into 2071 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 118.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 257.0
The remainder is 118 after subtracting 1953 from 2071.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 118, then repeat: 1183 / 279

Moving on to step 6:
The number 279 fits into 1183 4 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2574.0
If we take 1116 away from 1183, we end up with 67.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 670 / 279

Let's proceed to step 7:
670 divided by 279 is 2 with a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 25742.0
If we take 558 away from 670, we end up with 112.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 112 and repeat the process: 1121 / 279

On to step 8:
1121 divided by 279 is 4 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 257424.0
If we take 1116 away from 1121, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 279, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 257424.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
500 divided by 279 is 1 with a remainder of 221.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 257424.01
Deduct 279 from 500 and we're left with 221.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2210, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 2210 by 279, we get 7 with a remainder of 257.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257424.017
Subtract 1953 from 2210 to get 257.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
279 can be fit into 2570 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 257424.0179
If we take 2511 away from 2570, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
279 goes into 590 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 257424.01792
Subtract 558 from 590 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
279 can be fit into 320 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 257424.017921
If we take 279 away from 320, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
279 goes into 410 1 times with a remainder of 131.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 257424.0179211
If we subtract 279 from 410, we get 131.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1310, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 257424.0179211 and a remainder of 1.31e-06.
