487212 divided by 61 
We want to figure out the number of times 487212 can be divided by 61.

Advancing to step 1:
61 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 61

Step 2:
If we divide 48 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 487 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
The number 61 fits into 487 7 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 427 from 487 to get 60.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 60 and repeat the process: 602 / 61

Step 4:
When dividing 602 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 79.0
If we take 549 away from 602, we end up with 53.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 531 / 61

Advancing to step 5:
The number 61 fits into 531 8 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 798.0
If we take 488 away from 531, we end up with 43.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 432 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 432 by 61, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7987.0
Subtract 427 from 432 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
61 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7987.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 500 by 61, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7987.08
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 488 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
120 divided by 61 is 1 with a remainder of 59.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7987.081
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 61 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 61 fits into 590 9 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7987.0819
Subtract 549 from 590 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
61 goes into 410 6 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7987.08196
Subtract 366 from 410 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
61 goes into 440 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7987.081967
Subtracting 427 from 440 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 130 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7987.0819672
If we take 122 away from 130, we end up 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.

On to step 14:
61 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7987.08196721
Subtracting 61 from 80 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 7987.08196721 and a remainder of 1.9e-08.
