Let's divide 587483 by 77
We want to figure out the number of times 587483 can be divided by 77.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 77

On to step 2:
If we divide 58 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 58 and we're left with 58.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 587 / 77

Moving on to step 3:
587 divided by 77 is 7 with a remainder of 48.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 539 from 587 leaves us with 48.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 484 / 77

Step 4:
The number 77 fits into 484 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76.0
Subtract 462 from 484 to get 22.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 228 / 77

Step 5:
77 goes into 228 2 times with a remainder of 74.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 762.0
Subtracting 154 from 228 leaves us with 74.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 743 / 77

Step 6:
The number 77 fits into 743 9 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7629.0
Subtracting 693 from 743 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 500 by 77, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7629.6
Deduct 462 from 500 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 77 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7629.64
Subtracting 308 from 380 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 9:
77 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7629.649
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 693 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 270 by 77, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7629.6493
Subtracting 231 from 270 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 77 fits into 390 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7629.64935
If we subtract 385 from 390, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 77 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7629.64935
If we subtract 0 from 50, 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.

Moving on to step 13:
77 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7629.6493506
If we subtract 462 from 500, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
77 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7629.64935064
Subtract 308 from 380 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 7629.64935064, and the remainder is 7.2e-08.
