240988 divided by 77 
We want to divide 240988 by 77.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 77

Going ahead to step 2:
77 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 240 / 77

Moving on to step 3:
77 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 231 away from 240, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 77

Step 4:
If we divide 99 by 77, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 77 from 99.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 228 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
228 divided by 77 is 2 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 312.0
If we subtract 154 from 228, we get 74.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 748 / 77

On to step 6:
77 can be fit into 748 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3129.0
Deduct 693 from 748 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
77 goes into 550 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3129.7
Subtract 539 from 550 to 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 110 by 77, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3129.71
If we take 77 away from 110, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
330 divided by 77 is 4 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3129.714
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 308 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
77 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3129.7142
Deduct 154 from 220 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
660 divided by 77 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3129.71428
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 616 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 440 by 77, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3129.714285
Subtract 385 from 440 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 77 fits into 550 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3129.7142857
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 539 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
110 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3129.71428571
If we take 77 away from 110, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

The final result is 3129.71428571 with a remainder of 3.3e-08.
