Let's divide 873948 by 61
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 873948.

Advancing to step 1:
8 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 61

On to step 2:
87 divided by 61 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 61 from 87 and we're left with 26.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 263 / 61

On to step 3:
When dividing 263 by 61, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 244 away from 263, we end up with 19.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 199 / 61

Step 4:
The number 61 fits into 199 3 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 143.0
Subtracting 183 from 199 leaves us with 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 61

Step 5:
When dividing 164 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1432.0
If we take 122 away from 164, we end up with 42.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 428 / 61

On to step 6:
61 can be fit into 428 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14327.0
Deduct 427 from 428 and we're left 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 7:
The number 61 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14327.0
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 8:
If we divide 100 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 14327.01
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 61 fits into 390 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14327.016
If we subtract 366 from 390, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
61 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14327.0163
Subtract 183 from 240 to get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
61 can be fit into 570 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14327.01639
Subtracting 549 from 570 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 61 fits into 210 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14327.016393
Deduct 183 from 210 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
61 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14327.0163934
Subtract 244 from 270 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 61 fits into 260 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14327.01639344
Subtract 244 from 260 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 14327.01639344, with a leftover of 1.6e-08.
