We look at the division of 461987 by 68 
We're looking to find how many times 68 goes into 461987.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 68 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 68

Step 2:
46 divided by 68 is 0 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 46 to get 46.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 461 / 68

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 461 by 68, we get 6 with a remainder of 53.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 408 from 461.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 539 / 68

Step 4:
68 can be fit into 539 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 67.0
If we subtract 476 from 539, we get 63.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 638 / 68

Moving on to step 5:
68 can be fit into 638 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 679.0
If we take 612 away from 638, we end up with 26.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 267 / 68

Step 6:
68 goes into 267 3 times with a remainder of 63.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6793.0
If we subtract 204 from 267, we get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 68 fits into 630 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6793.9
Deduct 612 from 630 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
68 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6793.92
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 136 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
68 can be fit into 440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6793.926
Subtract 408 from 440 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 10:
320 divided by 68 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6793.9264
Subtract 272 from 320 to 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.

Step 11:
If we divide 480 by 68, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6793.92647
If we subtract 476 from 480, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 68 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6793.92647
If we subtract 0 from 40, we 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 13:
68 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6793.9264705
Subtract 340 from 400 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 68 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6793.92647058
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 544 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6793.92647058, and the remainder is 5.6e-08.
