Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll use the long division method to divide 7714 7714 by 7 7 :

1. Consider the first digit of the dividend, 7 7 . How many times does 7 7 go into 7 7 ? It fits 1 time.

2. Write 1 1 in the quotient and subtract 7×1=7 7 \times 1 = 7 from the digit to get 0 0 . Next, bring down the next digit, which is 7 7 , making the number 07 07 .

3. Determine how many times 7 7 fits into 07 07 . It fits no times, so write 0 0 in the quotient, resulting in 10 10 in the quotient so far. Bring down the next digit 1 1 , making it 71 71 .

4. How many times does 7 7 go into 71 71 ? It fits 10 times. Write a 1 1 in the quotient next to the existing one, making 110 110 .

5. Subtract 7×10=70 7 \times 10 = 70 , resulting in 1 1 . Bring down the next digit 4 4 , making it 14 14 .

6. How many times does 7 7 go into 14 14 ? It fits 2 times. Write 2 2 in the quotient, yielding a final quotient of 1102 1102 .

Subtract 7×2=14 7 \times 2 = 14 from 14 14 , resulting in a remainder of 0 0 , indicating division is complete with no remainder.

Therefore, the quotient when 7714 7714 is divided by 7 7 is 1102 1102 .

Answer

1102 1102
