We divide 240049 by 77
We want to divide 240049 by 77.

Advancing to step 1:
77 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 77

Moving on to step 2:
24 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 240 / 77

On to step 3:
77 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 231 from 240.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 90 / 77

Advancing to step 4:
77 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 77 from 90, we get 13.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 134 / 77

On to step 5:
77 goes into 134 1 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 311.0
Subtract 77 from 134 to get 57.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 579 / 77

Advancing to step 6:
579 divided by 77 is 7 with a remainder of 40.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3117.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 539 from 579.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 400 by 77, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3117.5
If we subtract 385 from 400, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 150 by 77, we get 1 with a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3117.51
If we subtract 77 from 150, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 730 by 77, we get 9 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3117.519
If we take 693 away from 730, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 370 by 77, we get 4 with a remainder of 62.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3117.5194
Subtract 308 from 370 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 77 fits into 620 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3117.51948
Subtracting 616 from 620 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 77 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3117.51948
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 77 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3117.5194805
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
77 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 73.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3117.51948051
Subtract 77 from 150 to get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3117.51948051, and the remainder is 7.3e-08.
