We divide 8977 by 76
Let's see how many times 76 fits into 8977.

Going ahead to step 1:
76 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 89 / 76

Let's proceed to step 2:
76 goes into 89 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 76 from 89 and we're left with 13.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 137 / 76

Advancing to step 3:
76 goes into 137 1 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 76 from 137, we get 61.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 617 / 76

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 617 by 76, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
If we subtract 608 from 617, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 5:
The number 76 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 118.1
If we take 76 away from 90, we end up with 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 6:
The number 76 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 118.11
If we subtract 76 from 140, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 118.11 with a balance of 0.064.
