977045 divided by 8 
We want to figure out the number of times 977045 can be divided by 8.

Moving on to step 1:
8 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 8 from 9 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 8

Step 2:
When dividing 17 by 8, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 16 from 17 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 8

Step 3:
When dividing 17 by 8, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 122.0
Deduct 16 from 17 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 10 / 8

Moving on to step 4:
The number 8 fits into 10 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1221.0
Subtracting 8 from 10 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
8 can be fit into 24 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12213.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 24 from 24.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 8

Let's proceed to step 6:
5 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122130.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 8, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 122130.6
Subtracting 48 from 50 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
20 divided by 8 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122130.62
If we take 16 away from 20, we end up 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 9:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 122130.625
If we take 40 away from 40, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
0 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 122130.625
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 122130.625
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 122130.625 with a balance of 0.0.
