79877 ÷ 1 
We want to figure out the number of times 79877 can be divided by 1.

Advancing to step 1:
1 goes into 7 7 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 7 away from 7, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 9 / 1

Step 2:
9 divided by 1 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 79.0
If we subtract 9 from 9, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 1

Going ahead to step 3:
1 can be fit into 8 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 798.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 7 / 1

Step 4:
7 divided by 1 is 7 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7987.0
If we subtract 7 from 7, we get 0.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 7 / 1

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 7 by 1, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79877.0
If we subtract 7 from 7, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 79877.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 79877.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 79877.0 with a remaining 0.0.
