72980938 divided by 77 
We want to figure out the number of times 72980938 can be divided by 77.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 77

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 729 / 77

Step 3:
729 divided by 77 is 9 with a remainder of 36.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 693 from 729 to get 36.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 368 / 77

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 368 by 77, we get 4 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 94.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 308 from 368.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 600 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
77 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 947.0
Subtract 539 from 600 to get 61.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 619 / 77

On to step 6:
619 divided by 77 is 8 with a remainder of 3.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9478.0
Deduct 616 from 619 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 33 / 77

Step 7:
The number 77 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 94780.0
If we take 0 away from 33, we end up with 33.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 338 / 77

On to step 8:
If we divide 338 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 947804.0
Subtract 308 from 338 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 300 by 77, we get 3 and a remainder of 69.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 947804.3
If we subtract 231 from 300, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 10:
77 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 74.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 947804.38
If we take 616 away from 690, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 77 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 947804.389
Subtract 693 from 740 to get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 12:
470 divided by 77 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 947804.3896
Subtract 462 from 470 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
80 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 947804.38961
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 77 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 30 by 77, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 947804.38961
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
77 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 947804.3896103
Deduct 231 from 300 and we're left with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
77 can be fit into 690 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 947804.38961038
Deduct 616 from 690 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 947804.38961038 and a remainder of 7.4e-08.
