277998 divided by 77 
We want to figure out the number of times 277998 can be divided by 77.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 77 fits into 2 0 times, leaving 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.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 77

On to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 277 / 77

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 277 by 77, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 231 from 277, we get 46.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 469 / 77

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 469 by 77, we get 6 and a remainder of 7.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtract 462 from 469 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 77

Moving on to step 5:
77 goes into 79 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 361.0
Deduct 77 from 79 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 77

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 28 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3610.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
77 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 49.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3610.3
Deduct 231 from 280 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 490 by 77, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3610.36
Deduct 462 from 490 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
77 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3610.363
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 231 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
77 goes into 490 6 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3610.3636
If we subtract 462 from 490, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 11:
77 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 49.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3610.36363
If we subtract 231 from 280, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
490 divided by 77 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3610.363636
If we subtract 462 from 490, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
77 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3610.3636363
Subtracting 231 from 280 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 490 by 77, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3610.36363636
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 462 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3610.36363636 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
