We look at the division of 68497 by 77 
We want to divide 68497 by 77.

Step 1:
If we divide 6 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 77

Step 2:
When dividing 68 by 77, we get 0 with a remainder of 68.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 68 to get 68.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 684 / 77

On to step 3:
The number 77 fits into 684 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 616 from 684 and we're left with 68.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 689 / 77

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 689 by 77, we get 8 and a remainder of 73.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
Deduct 616 from 689 and we're left with 73.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 737 / 77

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 77 fits into 737 9 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 889.0
If we subtract 693 from 737, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 77 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 889.5
Deduct 385 from 440 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 550 by 77, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 889.57
Deduct 539 from 550 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 110 by 77, we get 1 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 889.571
Subtracting 77 from 110 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
77 can be fit into 330 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 889.5714
Subtract 308 from 330 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
77 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 66.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 889.57142
If we subtract 154 from 220, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 77 fits into 660 8 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 889.571428
Subtract 616 from 660 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 12:
77 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 889.5714285
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 385 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
550 divided by 77 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 889.57142857
Deduct 539 from 550 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 889.57142857 with a balance of 1.1e-08.
