We're dividing 223538 by 77 
We're looking to find how many times 77 goes into 223538.

Let's proceed to step 1:
77 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 77

Moving on to step 2:
The number 77 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 223 / 77

Moving on to step 3:
77 goes into 223 2 times with a remainder of 69.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 154 from 223.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 695 / 77

Step 4:
The number 77 fits into 695 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 693 from 695.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 77

Going ahead to step 5:
23 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 290.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 238 / 77

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 238 by 77, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2903.0
Subtract 231 from 238 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
77 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2903.0
Subtracting 0 from 70 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 77 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2903.09
If we take 693 away from 700, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 9:
70 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2903.09
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 77 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2903.0909
Subtracting 693 from 700 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 70 by 77, we get 0 with a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2903.0909
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
700 divided by 77 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2903.090909
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 693 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
77 goes into 70 0 times with a remainder of 70.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2903.090909
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
700 divided by 77 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2903.09090909
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 693 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2903.09090909 with a balance of 7e-09.
