208859 divided by 77 
We're looking to find how many times 77 goes into 208859.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 77, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
20 divided by 77 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 208 / 77

Going ahead to step 3:
77 can be fit into 208 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 154 from 208 leaves us with 54.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 54 and repeat the process: 548 / 77

Moving on to step 4:
548 divided by 77 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 539 from 548 leaves us with 9.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 95 / 77

Step 5:
95 divided by 77 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 271.0
Deduct 77 from 95 and we're left with 18.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 189 / 77

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 189 by 77, we get 2 and a remainder of 35.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2712.0
If we subtract 154 from 189, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 77 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2712.4
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 308 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 420 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2712.45
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 385 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 9:
350 divided by 77 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2712.454
If we subtract 308 from 350, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 10:
420 divided by 77 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2712.4545
If we subtract 385 from 420, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 350 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2712.45454
If we take 308 away from 350, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 77 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2712.454545
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 385 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
77 can be fit into 350 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2712.4545454
Subtracting 308 from 350 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
77 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2712.45454545
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 385 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2712.45454545 with a balance of 3.5e-08.
