We divide 966318 by 61
Our goal is to divide 966318 by 61.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 61 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 61

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 96 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 61 from 96.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 356 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 356 by 61, we get 5 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 305 from 356 leaves us with 51.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 513 / 61

Advancing to step 4:
61 can be fit into 513 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 158.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 488 from 513.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 251 / 61

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 251 by 61, we get 4 and a remainder of 7.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1584.0
Deduct 244 from 251 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 61 fits into 78 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15841.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 61 from 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 61 fits into 170 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15841.2
If we subtract 122 from 170, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 61 fits into 480 7 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15841.27
If we take 427 away from 480, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 530 by 61, we get 8 with a remainder of 42.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15841.278
If we subtract 488 from 530, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
61 goes into 420 6 times with a remainder of 54.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15841.2786
Subtracting 366 from 420 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
540 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15841.27868
Deduct 488 from 540 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
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: 15841.278688
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 15841.278688 with a balance of 3.2e-06.
