Let's divide 317877 by 76
We want to figure out the number of times 317877 can be divided by 76.

Let's proceed to step 1:
76 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 76

Let's proceed to step 2:
76 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 31, we get 31.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 317 / 76

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 317 by 76, we get 4 and a remainder of 13.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 304 away from 317, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 138 / 76

On to step 4:
The number 76 fits into 138 1 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 76 from 138.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 627 / 76

Going ahead to step 5:
627 divided by 76 is 8 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 418.0
If we take 608 away from 627, we end up with 19.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 197 / 76

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 197 by 76, we get 2 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4182.0
Subtract 152 from 197 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
76 can be fit into 450 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4182.5
If we subtract 380 from 450, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
76 can be fit into 700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4182.59
Subtracting 684 from 700 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 76 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4182.592
Subtract 152 from 160 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
76 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4182.5921
If we take 76 away from 80, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 11:
40 divided by 76 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4182.5921
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 76, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4182.592105
Subtracting 380 from 400 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 76 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4182.5921052
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 152 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 14:
480 divided by 76 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4182.59210526
Deduct 456 from 480 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 4182.59210526 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
