Let's divide 977720 by 85
We want to divide 977720 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 85 away from 97, we end up with 12.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 127 / 85

On to step 3:
85 can be fit into 127 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 85 from 127, we get 42.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 427 / 85

Step 4:
85 can be fit into 427 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 115.0
If we subtract 425 from 427, we get 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 22 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1150.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 220 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 220 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11502.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 170 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 500 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11502.5
Deduct 425 from 500 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11502.58
Deduct 680 from 750 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
700 divided by 85 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11502.588
If we take 680 away from 700, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11502.588 and a remainder of 0.002.
