Let's divide 23982 by 77
Our goal is to divide 23982 by 77.

Advancing to step 1:
77 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 77

Advancing to step 2:
77 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 239 / 77

Moving on to step 3:
The number 77 fits into 239 3 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 231 from 239.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 77

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 88 by 77, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 77 from 88, we get 11.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 112 / 77

Step 5:
If we divide 112 by 77, we get 1 and a remainder of 35.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 311.0
Deduct 77 from 112 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 350 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 311.4
Deduct 308 from 350 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 77 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 311.45
If we subtract 385 from 420, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 350 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 311.454
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 308 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
77 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 311.4545
Subtract 385 from 420 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 77 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 311.45454
If we subtract 308 from 350, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 77 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 311.454545
Deduct 385 from 420 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
77 can be fit into 350 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 311.4545454
If we subtract 308 from 350, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
77 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 311.45454545
If we subtract 385 from 420, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Our division results in 311.45454545 with a remaining 3.5e-08.
