We look at the division of 63973 by 61 
Our goal is to divide 63973 by 61.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 61 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 61

On to step 2:
61 can be fit into 63 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 61 from 63, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 61

On to step 3:
The number 61 fits into 29 0 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 297 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 61 fits into 297 4 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 104.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 244 from 297.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 533 / 61

Advancing to step 5:
61 goes into 533 8 times with a remainder of 45.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1048.0
Subtracting 488 from 533 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.

On to step 6:
If we divide 450 by 61, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1048.7
Subtract 427 from 450 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 61 fits into 230 3 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1048.73
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 183 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 470 by 61, we get 7 and a remainder of 43.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1048.737
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 427 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 61 fits into 430 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1048.7377
If we subtract 427 from 430, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1048.7377 with a remaining 3e-05.
