842977 divided by 70 
We want to divide 842977 by 70.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 70, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 70

On to step 2:
70 can be fit into 84 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 70 from 84 to get 14.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 142 / 70

Advancing to step 3:
70 goes into 142 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 140 from 142.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 70

Going ahead to step 4:
70 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 120.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 0 from 29.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 297 / 70

Step 5:
70 goes into 297 4 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1204.0
If we take 280 away from 297, we end up with 17.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 177 / 70

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 177 by 70, we get 2 with a remainder of 37.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12042.0
If we subtract 140 from 177, we get 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 7:
70 can be fit into 370 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12042.5
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 350 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
70 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12042.52
If we subtract 140 from 200, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
600 divided by 70 is 8 with a remainder of 40.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12042.528
If we subtract 560 from 600, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
70 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12042.5285
If we take 350 away from 400, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
500 divided by 70 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12042.52857
Subtract 490 from 500 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 70, we get 1 with a remainder of 30.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12042.528571
If we take 70 away from 100, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 70 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12042.5285714
If we take 280 away from 300, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 70 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12042.52857142
If we subtract 140 from 200, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 12042.52857142, with a leftover of 6e-08.
