55491 ÷ 79 
We're looking to find how many times 79 goes into 55491.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 79

Step 2:
The number 79 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 55 and we're left with 55.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 554 / 79

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 554 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 553 away from 554, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 79

Step 4:
19 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 70.0
If we subtract 0 from 19, we get 19.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 191 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
191 divided by 79 is 2 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 702.0
If we subtract 158 from 191, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 330 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 702.4
If we subtract 316 from 330, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 140 by 79, we get 1 with a remainder of 61.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 702.41
If we take 79 away from 140, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 8:
79 goes into 610 7 times with a remainder of 57.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 702.417
If we subtract 553 from 610, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 79 fits into 570 7 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 702.4177
Deduct 553 from 570 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 702.4177, with a leftover of 0.00017.
