We divide 977999 by 57
We want to figure out the number of times 977999 can be divided by 57.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 57 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 57

Moving on to step 2:
57 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 57 from 97 to get 40.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 57

Moving on to step 3:
57 goes into 407 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 399 from 407 to get 8.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 89 / 57

Advancing to step 4:
The number 57 fits into 89 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 171.0
Subtract 57 from 89 to get 32.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 329 / 57

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 57 fits into 329 5 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1715.0
If we subtract 285 from 329, we get 44.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 449 / 57

On to step 6:
If we divide 449 by 57, we get 7 and a remainder of 50.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17157.0
If we subtract 399 from 449, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
500 divided by 57 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17157.8
If we subtract 456 from 500, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 57 fits into 440 7 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17157.87
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 399 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
57 can be fit into 410 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17157.877
If we subtract 399 from 410, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

The final result is 17157.877 with a remainder of 0.0011.
