963987 divided by 77 
We're looking to find how many times 77 goes into 963987.

Let's proceed to step 1:
77 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 77

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 96 by 77, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 77 from 96.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 193 / 77

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 193 by 77, we get 2 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 154 from 193, we get 39.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 399 / 77

Let's proceed to step 4:
77 can be fit into 399 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 125.0
If we take 385 away from 399, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 77

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 148 by 77, we get 1 with a remainder of 71.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1251.0
If we take 77 away from 148, we end up with 71.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 717 / 77

Advancing to step 6:
77 goes into 717 9 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12519.0
Subtract 693 from 717 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
77 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12519.3
Deduct 231 from 240 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
90 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12519.31
If we subtract 77 from 90, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 130 by 77, we get 1 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12519.311
Subtracting 77 from 130 leaves us with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12519.311 with a balance of 0.0053.
