We're dividing 71886473 by 277 
Our goal is to divide 71886473 by 277.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 277, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 277

Going ahead to step 2:
277 goes into 71 0 times with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 0 from 71.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 718 / 277

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 277 fits into 718 2 times, leaving a remainder of 164.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 554 from 718 to get 164.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 164 and continue: 1648 / 277

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 1648 by 277, we get 5 and a remainder of 263.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 1385 from 1648 and we're left with 263.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 263, then repeat: 2636 / 277

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 2636 by 277, we get 9 and a remainder of 143.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 259.0
If we subtract 2493 from 2636, we get 143.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 143 and continue with: 1434 / 277

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 1434 by 277, we get 5 and a remainder of 49.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2595.0
Deduct 1385 from 1434 and we're left with 49.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 497 / 277

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 497 by 277, we get 1 and a remainder of 220.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25951.0
If we subtract 277 from 497, we get 220.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 220 and continue: 2203 / 277

Moving on to step 8:
277 can be fit into 2203 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 264.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 259517.0
Subtracting 1939 from 2203 leaves us with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
277 goes into 2640 9 times with a remainder of 147.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 259517.9
Deduct 2493 from 2640 and we're left with 147.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 1470 by 277, we get 5 with a remainder of 85.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 259517.95
If we subtract 1385 from 1470, we get 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 850 by 277, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 259517.953
Subtracting 831 from 850 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
277 goes into 190 0 times with a remainder of 190.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 259517.953
If we subtract 0 from 190, we get 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
277 goes into 1900 6 times with a remainder of 238.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 259517.95306
Subtract 1662 from 1900 to get 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
277 goes into 2380 8 times with a remainder of 164.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 259517.953068
Subtract 2216 from 2380 to get 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
When dividing 1640 by 277, we get 5 with a remainder of 255.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 259517.9530685
The remainder is 255 after subtracting 1385 from 1640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 2550 by 277, we get 9 and a remainder of 57.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 259517.95306859
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 2493 from 2550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Our division results in 259517.95306859 with a remaining 5.7e-08.
