We divide 33731002 by 977
We want to divide 33731002 by 977.

On to step 1:
977 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 33 / 977

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 33 by 977, we get 0 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 33 to get 33.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 337 / 977

Let's proceed to step 3:
977 goes into 337 0 times with a remainder of 337.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 337, we end up with 337.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 337, then carry on: 3373 / 977

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 3373 by 977, we get 3 with a remainder of 442.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 2931 away from 3373, we end up with 442.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 442, then carry on: 4421 / 977

Advancing to step 5:
The number 977 fits into 4421 4 times, leaving a remainder of 513.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtract 3908 from 4421 to get 513.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 513 and continue: 5130 / 977

On to step 6:
The number 977 fits into 5130 5 times, leaving a remainder of 245.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 345.0
Subtract 4885 from 5130 to get 245.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 245 and continue: 2450 / 977

Advancing to step 7:
977 can be fit into 2450 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 496.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3452.0
The remainder is 496 after subtracting 1954 from 2450.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 496 and continue with: 4962 / 977

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 4962 by 977, we get 5 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 34525.0
If we subtract 4885 from 4962, we get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 770 by 977, we get 0 and a remainder of 770.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34525.0
The remainder is 770 after subtracting 0 from 770.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
7700 divided by 977 is 7 with a remainder of 861.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34525.07
Deduct 6839 from 7700 and we're left with 861.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
977 goes into 8610 8 times with a remainder of 794.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 34525.078
Deduct 7816 from 8610 and we're left with 794.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 977 fits into 7940 8 times, leaving a remainder of 124.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34525.0788
If we take 7816 away from 7940, we end up with 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 34525.0788 with a balance of 0.00124.
