We look at the division of 12608131 by 461 
We want to divide 12608131 by 461.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 461 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 461

Step 2:
461 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 126 / 461

Moving on to step 3:
The number 461 fits into 126 0 times, leaving a remainder of 126.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 126 and we're left with 126.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 126 and continue with: 1260 / 461

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 1260 by 461, we get 2 and a remainder of 338.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 922 from 1260 and we're left with 338.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 338 and continue with: 3388 / 461

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 461 fits into 3388 7 times, leaving a remainder of 161.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtract 3227 from 3388 to get 161.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 161, then repeat: 1611 / 461

Step 6:
When dividing 1611 by 461, we get 3 with a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 273.0
Subtract 1383 from 1611 to get 228.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 228 and repeat the process: 2283 / 461

Advancing to step 7:
2283 divided by 461 is 4 with a remainder of 439.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2734.0
Deduct 1844 from 2283 and we're left with 439.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 439 and continue with: 4391 / 461

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 4391 by 461, we get 9 and a remainder of 242.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27349.0
If we subtract 4149 from 4391, we get 242.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2420, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 461 fits into 2420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 115.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 27349.5
Subtract 2305 from 2420 to get 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1150 by 461, we get 2 with a remainder of 228.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27349.52
Deduct 922 from 1150 and we're left with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 461 fits into 2280 4 times, leaving a remainder of 436.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27349.524
If we subtract 1844 from 2280, we get 436.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4360, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 4360 by 461, we get 9 with a remainder of 211.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27349.5249
Subtract 4149 from 4360 to get 211.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 2110 by 461, we get 4 with a remainder of 266.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 27349.52494
If we take 1844 away from 2110, we end up with 266.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2660, and continue the process.

Step 14:
461 can be fit into 2660 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 355.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27349.524945
Subtract 2305 from 2660 to get 355.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
3550 divided by 461 is 7 with a remainder of 323.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27349.5249457
If we take 3227 away from 3550, we end up with 323.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3230, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
When dividing 3230 by 461, we get 7 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27349.52494577
Subtract 3227 from 3230 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Our division results in 27349.52494577 with a remaining 3e-09.
