Let's divide 977541 by 55
We want to divide 977541 by 55.

Moving on to step 1:
55 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 55

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 55 from 97, we get 42.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 427 / 55

Let's proceed to step 3:
55 can be fit into 427 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 385 from 427 leaves us with 42.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 425 / 55

On to step 4:
425 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 177.0
If we take 385 away from 425, we end up with 40.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 404 / 55

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 404 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1777.0
Subtract 385 from 404 to get 19.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 191 / 55

Step 6:
55 goes into 191 3 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17773.0
Subtracting 165 from 191 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 260 by 55, we get 4 with a remainder of 40.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17773.4
Deduct 220 from 260 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17773.47
If we subtract 385 from 400, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17773.472
If we subtract 110 from 150, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17773.4727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17773.47272
Subtract 110 from 150 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17773.472727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17773.4727272
If we subtract 110 from 150, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17773.47272727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17773.47272727 with a balance of 1.5e-08.
