973429 ÷ 61 
We want to divide 973429 by 61.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 61

On to step 2:
The number 61 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 61 from 97.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 363 / 61

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 363 by 61, we get 5 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 305 from 363 and we're left with 58.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 584 / 61

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 584 by 61, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 159.0
If we subtract 549 from 584, we get 35.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 352 / 61

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 352 by 61, we get 5 and a remainder of 47.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1595.0
Subtract 305 from 352 to get 47.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 479 / 61

Moving on to step 6:
61 goes into 479 7 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15957.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 427 from 479.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
61 goes into 520 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15957.8
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 488 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
320 divided by 61 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15957.85
If we subtract 305 from 320, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 150 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15957.852
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 122 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 280 by 61, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15957.8524
Deduct 244 from 280 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 61 fits into 360 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15957.85245
Subtract 305 from 360 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 550 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15957.852459
Subtracting 549 from 550 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 13:
61 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15957.852459
Subtract 0 from 10 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 39.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15957.85245901
If we take 61 away from 100, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15957.85245901 with a balance of 3.9e-08.
