Let's divide 979490 by 61
Our goal is to divide 979490 by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
61 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 61

Moving on to step 2:
61 can be fit into 97 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 61 from 97 leaves us with 36.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 369 / 61

On to step 3:
61 goes into 369 6 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 366 from 369 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 61

Step 4:
34 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 160.0
Deduct 0 from 34 and we're left with 34.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 349 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 61 fits into 349 5 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1605.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 305 from 349.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 440 / 61

Step 6:
When dividing 440 by 61, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16057.0
Deduct 427 from 440 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
61 can be fit into 130 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16057.2
Subtracting 122 from 130 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16057.21
If we take 61 away from 80, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 190 by 61, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16057.213
Subtract 183 from 190 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 70 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16057.2131
Subtract 61 from 70 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 90 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16057.21311
If we subtract 61 from 90, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16057.21311 with a balance of 2.9e-05.
