We divide 972699 by 77
We're looking to find how many times 77 goes into 972699.

Let's proceed to step 1:
77 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
77 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 77 from 97 to get 20.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 202 / 77

Let's proceed to step 3:
202 divided by 77 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 154 away from 202, we end up with 48.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 486 / 77

Going ahead to step 4:
77 goes into 486 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
Subtracting 462 from 486 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
249 divided by 77 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1263.0
Subtract 231 from 249 to get 18.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 189 / 77

Advancing to step 6:
77 can be fit into 189 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12632.0
Subtract 154 from 189 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 350 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12632.4
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 308 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 8:
77 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12632.45
If we take 385 away from 420, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 350 by 77, we get 4 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12632.454
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 308 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
420 divided by 77 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12632.4545
Subtracting 385 from 420 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 77 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12632.45454
If we subtract 308 from 350, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 420 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12632.454545
Subtract 385 from 420 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
77 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12632.4545454
Deduct 308 from 350 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 420 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12632.45454545
Subtract 385 from 420 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

The final result is 12632.45454545 with a remainder of 3.5e-08.
