We're dividing 21054532 by 977 
We're looking to find how many times 977 goes into 21054532.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 977 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 977

On to step 2:
21 divided by 977 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 210 / 977

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 977 fits into 210 0 times, leaving a remainder of 210.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 210 leaves us with 210.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 210 and repeat the process: 2105 / 977

Let's proceed to step 4:
977 goes into 2105 2 times with a remainder of 151.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 1954 from 2105 leaves us with 151.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 151 and repeat the process: 1514 / 977

Let's proceed to step 5:
1514 divided by 977 is 1 with a remainder of 537.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we take 977 away from 1514, we end up with 537.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 537, then carry on: 5375 / 977

Moving on to step 6:
The number 977 fits into 5375 5 times, leaving a remainder of 490.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 215.0
Subtracting 4885 from 5375 leaves us with 490.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 490, then repeat: 4903 / 977

Let's proceed to step 7:
977 can be fit into 4903 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2155.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 4885 from 4903.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 182 / 977

Advancing to step 8:
977 can be fit into 182 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 182.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21550.0
Subtract 0 from 182 to get 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 1820 by 977, we get 1 with a remainder of 843.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21550.1
Subtracting 977 from 1820 leaves us with 843.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 977 fits into 8430 8 times, leaving a remainder of 614.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21550.18
Subtract 7816 from 8430 to get 614.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
977 can be fit into 6140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 278.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21550.186
The remainder is 278 after subtracting 5862 from 6140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 2780 by 977, we get 2 and a remainder of 826.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 21550.1862
If we take 1954 away from 2780, we end up with 826.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
977 can be fit into 8260 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 444.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 21550.18628
If we subtract 7816 from 8260, we get 444.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4440, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 4440 by 977, we get 4 and a remainder of 532.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21550.186284
The remainder is 532 after subtracting 3908 from 4440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 5320 by 977, we get 5 and a remainder of 435.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21550.1862845
Subtract 4885 from 5320 to get 435.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 4350 by 977, we get 4 with a remainder of 442.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21550.18628454
Subtracting 3908 from 4350 leaves us with 442.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4420, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 21550.18628454 with a balance of 4.42e-07.
