We divide 586479 by 77
We want to divide 586479 by 77.

On to step 1:
77 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
58 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 58, we end up with 58.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 586 / 77

On to step 3:
77 goes into 586 7 times with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 539 from 586 and we're left with 47.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 474 / 77

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 474 by 77, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 76.0
If we subtract 462 from 474, we get 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 77

Advancing to step 5:
77 goes into 127 1 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 761.0
If we take 77 away from 127, we end up with 50.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 509 / 77

Let's proceed to step 6:
77 goes into 509 6 times with a remainder of 47.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7616.0
If we take 462 away from 509, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 7:
470 divided by 77 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7616.6
Deduct 462 from 470 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 77 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7616.61
Subtract 77 from 80 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 30 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7616.61
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
77 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 69.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7616.6103
Subtract 231 from 300 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 11:
77 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7616.61038
Subtract 616 from 690 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
77 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 47.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7616.610389
If we subtract 693 from 740, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 470 by 77, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7616.6103896
If we take 462 away from 470, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 77 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7616.61038961
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 77 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7616.61038961 with a balance of 3e-09.
