Let's divide 257401 by 61
Let's see how many times 61 fits into 257401.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 61

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 257 / 61

Step 3:
257 divided by 61 is 4 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 244 away from 257, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 134 / 61

On to step 4:
If we divide 134 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Deduct 122 from 134 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 120 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
61 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 421.0
Subtracting 61 from 120 leaves us with 59.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 591 / 61

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 591 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4219.0
Subtract 549 from 591 to 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.

Step 7:
420 divided by 61 is 6 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4219.6
If we take 366 away from 420, we end up 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 8:
If we divide 540 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4219.68
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.

Advancing to step 9:
520 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4219.688
If we take 488 away from 520, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final result is 4219.688 with a remainder of 0.0032.
