Let's divide 598874 by 61
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 598874.

Advancing to step 1:
61 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 61

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 59 by 61, we get 0 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 59, we get 59.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 598 / 61

On to step 3:
598 divided by 61 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 549 from 598 and we're left with 49.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 498 / 61

On to step 4:
61 goes into 498 8 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 98.0
If we subtract 488 from 498, we get 10.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 61

Step 5:
The number 61 fits into 107 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 981.0
Subtracting 61 from 107 leaves us with 46.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 464 / 61

On to step 6:
When dividing 464 by 61, we get 7 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9817.0
If we subtract 427 from 464, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
61 can be fit into 370 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9817.6
If we subtract 366 from 370, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 61, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9817.6
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 9:
61 goes into 400 6 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9817.606
Deduct 366 from 400 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
61 can be fit into 340 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9817.6065
Deduct 305 from 340 and we're left with 35.
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 11:
350 divided by 61 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9817.60655
Subtracting 305 from 350 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

The final result is 9817.60655 with a remainder of 4.5e-05.
