Let's divide 187214 by 77
We want to figure out the number of times 187214 can be divided by 77.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 77 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 187 / 77

Advancing to step 3:
187 divided by 77 is 2 with a remainder of 33.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 154 from 187, we get 33.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 332 / 77

Advancing to step 4:
77 goes into 332 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 308 from 332 and we're left with 24.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 241 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 241 by 77, we get 3 with a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 243.0
If we take 231 away from 241, we end up with 10.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 104 / 77

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 77 fits into 104 1 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2431.0
Deduct 77 from 104 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 270 by 77, we get 3 with a remainder of 39.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2431.3
If we take 231 away from 270, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 8:
77 can be fit into 390 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2431.35
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 385 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
77 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2431.35
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 500 by 77, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2431.3506
Deduct 462 from 500 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 11:
77 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2431.35064
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 308 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 720 by 77, we get 9 with a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2431.350649
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 693 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
270 divided by 77 is 3 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2431.3506493
If we take 231 away from 270, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 390 by 77, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2431.35064935
If we subtract 385 from 390, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2431.35064935, with a leftover of 5e-09.
