We divide 71977717 by 985
We want to divide 71977717 by 985.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 985 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 985

Moving on to step 2:
The number 985 fits into 71 0 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 71 to get 71.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 719 / 985

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 719 by 985, we get 0 and a remainder of 719.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 719 leaves us with 719.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 719, then carry on: 7197 / 985

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 7197 by 985, we get 7 with a remainder of 302.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 6895 from 7197, we get 302.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 302, then repeat: 3027 / 985

Going ahead to step 5:
3027 divided by 985 is 3 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
Subtracting 2955 from 3027 leaves us with 72.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 727 / 985

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 727 by 985, we get 0 with a remainder of 727.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 730.0
The remainder is 727 after subtracting 0 from 727.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 727, then repeat: 7271 / 985

Step 7:
The number 985 fits into 7271 7 times, leaving a remainder of 376.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7307.0
If we take 6895 away from 7271, we end up with 376.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 376, then repeat: 3767 / 985

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 3767 by 985, we get 3 and a remainder of 812.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 73073.0
Subtract 2955 from 3767 to get 812.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
985 goes into 8120 8 times with a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 73073.8
If we subtract 7880 from 8120, we get 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 2400 by 985, we get 2 with a remainder of 430.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73073.82
Subtracting 1970 from 2400 leaves us with 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
985 can be fit into 4300 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 360.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73073.824
Subtract 3940 from 4300 to get 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 3600 by 985, we get 3 with a remainder of 645.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73073.8243
Deduct 2955 from 3600 and we're left with 645.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
985 can be fit into 6450 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 540.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 73073.82436
Deduct 5910 from 6450 and we're left with 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
985 can be fit into 5400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 475.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73073.824365
If we subtract 4925 from 5400, we get 475.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 4750 by 985, we get 4 with a remainder of 810.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 73073.8243654
If we take 3940 away from 4750, we end up with 810.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
8100 divided by 985 is 8 with a remainder of 220.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 73073.82436548
If we take 7880 away from 8100, we end up with 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 73073.82436548, with a leftover of 2.2e-07.
