Let's divide 585884 by 61
We want to figure out the number of times 585884 can be divided by 61.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 61, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 61

On to step 2:
61 can be fit into 58 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 58, we end up with 58.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 585 / 61

Step 3:
When dividing 585 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 549 from 585.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 61

Moving on to step 4:
61 can be fit into 368 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 96.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 366 from 368.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 61

Moving on to step 5:
The number 61 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 960.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 284 / 61

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 284 by 61, we get 4 and a remainder of 40.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9604.0
Subtract 244 from 284 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
61 goes into 400 6 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9604.6
Subtract 366 from 400 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 61, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9604.65
Subtracting 305 from 340 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 61 fits into 350 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9604.655
Subtract 305 from 350 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9604.655 and a remainder of 0.0045.
