We look at the division of 727242 by 77 
We want to figure out the number of times 727242 can be divided by 77.

On to step 1:
77 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 727 / 77

Advancing to step 3:
77 goes into 727 9 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 693 from 727, we get 34.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 342 / 77

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 342 by 77, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 94.0
If we subtract 308 from 342, we get 34.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 344 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
77 can be fit into 344 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 944.0
If we subtract 308 from 344, we get 36.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 362 / 77

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 77 fits into 362 4 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9444.0
If we subtract 308 from 362, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 77 fits into 540 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9444.7
If we subtract 539 from 540, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9444.7
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
100 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9444.701
Subtract 77 from 100 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 10:
77 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9444.7012
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 154 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 760 by 77, we get 9 and a remainder of 67.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9444.70129
If we subtract 693 from 760, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 77 fits into 670 8 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9444.701298
If we take 616 away from 670, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
77 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9444.7012987
If we subtract 539 from 540, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 14:
10 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9444.7012987
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 9444.7012987 with a remainder of 1e-08.
