We're dividing 972052 by 77 
Our goal is to divide 972052 by 77.

On to step 1:
77 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 77

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 97 by 77, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 77 away from 97, we end up with 20.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 202 / 77

On to step 3:
77 can be fit into 202 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 154 from 202.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 480 / 77

Moving on to step 4:
77 can be fit into 480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 126.0
If we take 462 away from 480, we end up with 18.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 185 / 77

On to step 5:
If we divide 185 by 77, we get 2 and a remainder of 31.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1262.0
If we take 154 away from 185, we end up with 31.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 312 / 77

Moving on to step 6:
77 goes into 312 4 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12624.0
If we take 308 away from 312, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 40 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12624.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 77 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12624.05
If we take 385 away from 400, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
77 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 73.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12624.051
Deduct 77 from 150 and we're left with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
77 goes into 730 9 times with a remainder of 37.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12624.0519
Subtracting 693 from 730 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 370 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 62.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12624.05194
Subtract 308 from 370 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
620 divided by 77 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12624.051948
If we subtract 616 from 620, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 77 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12624.051948
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 77, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12624.05194805
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 12624.05194805, with a leftover of 1.5e-08.
