We're dividing 971018 by 77 
We're looking to find how many times 77 goes into 971018.

Step 1:
77 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 77

On to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 77, we get 1 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 77 from 97 and we're left with 20.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 201 / 77

Moving on to step 3:
77 can be fit into 201 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 154 from 201.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 470 / 77

Step 4:
77 goes into 470 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 462 from 470.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 77

Advancing to step 5:
81 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1261.0
Subtract 77 from 81 to get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 77

Moving on to step 6:
The number 77 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12610.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 0 from 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 77 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12610.6
Subtracting 462 from 480 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 180 by 77, we get 2 and a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12610.62
Deduct 154 from 180 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 9:
77 can be fit into 260 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12610.623
Deduct 231 from 260 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
77 goes into 290 3 times with a remainder of 59.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12610.6233
Subtracting 231 from 290 leaves us with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12610.6233 and a remainder of 0.00059.
