We divide 71988859 by 772
We're looking to find how many times 772 goes into 71988859.

On to step 1:
772 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 772

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 71 by 772, we get 0 and a remainder of 71.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 71 and we're left with 71.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 719 / 772

Going ahead to step 3:
772 goes into 719 0 times with a remainder of 719.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 719 leaves us with 719.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 719 and continue: 7198 / 772

Step 4:
When dividing 7198 by 772, we get 9 with a remainder of 250.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 6948 from 7198 and we're left with 250.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 250 and repeat the process: 2508 / 772

On to step 5:
If we divide 2508 by 772, we get 3 and a remainder of 192.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 93.0
If we subtract 2316 from 2508, we get 192.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 192, then repeat: 1928 / 772

On to step 6:
If we divide 1928 by 772, we get 2 and a remainder of 384.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 932.0
Deduct 1544 from 1928 and we're left with 384.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 384 and continue with: 3845 / 772

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 3845 by 772, we get 4 with a remainder of 757.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9324.0
If we take 3088 away from 3845, we end up with 757.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 757, then repeat: 7579 / 772

On to step 8:
772 can be fit into 7579 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 631.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 93249.0
Deduct 6948 from 7579 and we're left with 631.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6310, and continue the process.

Step 9:
772 can be fit into 6310 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 134.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 93249.8
Subtracting 6176 from 6310 leaves us with 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
772 goes into 1340 1 times with a remainder of 568.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 93249.81
Subtract 772 from 1340 to get 568.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 5680 by 772, we get 7 and a remainder of 276.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 93249.817
The remainder is 276 after subtracting 5404 from 5680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2760, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 772 fits into 2760 3 times, leaving a remainder of 444.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 93249.8173
Subtract 2316 from 2760 to get 444.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 772 fits into 4440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 580.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 93249.81735
Subtracting 3860 from 4440 leaves us with 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5800, and continue the process.

Step 14:
772 can be fit into 5800 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 396.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 93249.817357
The remainder is 396 after subtracting 5404 from 5800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

Step 15:
772 goes into 3960 5 times with a remainder of 100.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 93249.8173575
Deduct 3860 from 3960 and we're left with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
When dividing 1000 by 772, we get 1 with a remainder of 228.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 93249.81735751
The remainder is 228 after subtracting 772 from 1000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 93249.81735751 with a balance of 2.28e-07.
