Let's divide 16988291 by 772
We're looking to find how many times 772 goes into 16988291.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 772 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 772

Advancing to step 2:
16 divided by 772 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 169 / 772

Moving on to step 3:
772 goes into 169 0 times with a remainder of 169.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 169 after subtracting 0 from 169.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 169, then repeat: 1698 / 772

Moving on to step 4:
The number 772 fits into 1698 2 times, leaving a remainder of 154.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1544 from 1698, we get 154.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 154 and continue: 1548 / 772

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1548 by 772, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we subtract 1544 from 1548, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 772

Going ahead to step 6:
42 divided by 772 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 220.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 429 / 772

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 429 by 772, we get 0 with a remainder of 429.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2200.0
Subtracting 0 from 429 leaves us with 429.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 429, then repeat: 4291 / 772

On to step 8:
4291 divided by 772 is 5 with a remainder of 431.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 22005.0
Subtracting 3860 from 4291 leaves us with 431.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4310, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 4310 by 772, we get 5 with a remainder of 450.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22005.5
If we subtract 3860 from 4310, we get 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 4500 by 772, we get 5 and a remainder of 640.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22005.55
The remainder is 640 after subtracting 3860 from 4500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 22005.55 with a balance of 0.64.
