We look at the division of 171876 by 77 
We want to divide 171876 by 77.

Let's proceed to step 1:
77 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 171 / 77

Advancing to step 3:
77 can be fit into 171 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 154 from 171, we get 17.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 178 / 77

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 178 by 77, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 154 away from 178, we end up with 24.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 247 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
77 goes into 247 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 223.0
Subtracting 231 from 247 leaves us with 16.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 166 / 77

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 166 by 77, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2232.0
Subtracting 154 from 166 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
120 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2232.1
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 77 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 430 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2232.15
If we subtract 385 from 430, we 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 450 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2232.155
If we take 385 away from 450, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2232.155 with a balance of 0.0065.
