We're dividing 286268 by 61 
Our goal is to divide 286268 by 61.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 61

Step 2:
If we divide 28 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 286 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
The number 61 fits into 286 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 244 away from 286, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 422 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
61 goes into 422 6 times with a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 366 from 422.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 566 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 61 fits into 566 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 469.0
If we subtract 549 from 566, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 178 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 178 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4692.0
If we subtract 122 from 178, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
61 can be fit into 560 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4692.9
If we take 549 away from 560, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 110 by 61, we get 1 with a remainder of 49.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4692.91
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 61 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 61 fits into 490 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4692.918
Subtract 488 from 490 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
61 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4692.918
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 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 11:
The number 61 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4692.91803
Deduct 183 from 200 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
61 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4692.918032
Deduct 122 from 170 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 480 by 61, we get 7 and a remainder of 53.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4692.9180327
If we subtract 427 from 480, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 530 by 61, we get 8 with a remainder of 42.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4692.91803278
If we take 488 away from 530, 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.

Our division results in 4692.91803278 with a remaining 4.2e-08.
