We divide 8734012 by 977
We're looking to find how many times 977 goes into 8734012.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 977, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 977

Going ahead to step 2:
977 can be fit into 87 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 87 after subtracting 0 from 87.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 87, then carry on: 873 / 977

Step 3:
The number 977 fits into 873 0 times, leaving a remainder of 873.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 873 after subtracting 0 from 873.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 873, then repeat: 8734 / 977

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 8734 by 977, we get 8 and a remainder of 918.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 7816 from 8734 and we're left with 918.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 918, then repeat: 9180 / 977

On to step 5:
If we divide 9180 by 977, we get 9 and a remainder of 387.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 89.0
Subtract 8793 from 9180 to get 387.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 387 and continue: 3871 / 977

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 3871 by 977, we get 3 and a remainder of 940.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 893.0
Deduct 2931 from 3871 and we're left with 940.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 940 and continue with: 9402 / 977

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 977 fits into 9402 9 times, leaving a remainder of 609.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8939.0
The remainder is 609 after subtracting 8793 from 9402.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6090, and continue the process.

Step 8:
977 goes into 6090 6 times with a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8939.6
Deduct 5862 from 6090 and we're left with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
977 goes into 2280 2 times with a remainder of 326.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8939.62
Subtracting 1954 from 2280 leaves us with 326.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 3260 by 977, we get 3 and a remainder of 329.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8939.623
Subtracting 2931 from 3260 leaves us with 329.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
977 can be fit into 3290 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 359.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8939.6233
Subtract 2931 from 3290 to get 359.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3590, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8939.6233, with a leftover of 0.00359.
