We're dividing 284948 by 61 
We want to divide 284948 by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 61 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 61

Step 2:
61 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 284 / 61

On to step 3:
284 divided by 61 is 4 with a remainder of 40.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 244 from 284 to get 40.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 409 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 61 fits into 409 6 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46.0
Deduct 366 from 409 and we're left with 43.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 434 / 61

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 434 by 61, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 467.0
Subtract 427 from 434 to get 7.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 61 fits into 78 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4671.0
Deduct 61 from 78 and we're left with 17.
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:
61 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4671.2
Deduct 122 from 170 and we're left with 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 8:
The number 61 fits into 480 7 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4671.27
Subtracting 427 from 480 leaves us 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.

On to step 9:
530 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4671.278
Deduct 488 from 530 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
61 can be fit into 420 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4671.2786
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 11:
The number 61 fits into 540 8 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4671.27868
Subtracting 488 from 540 leaves us 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:
The number 61 fits into 520 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4671.278688
If we subtract 488 from 520, we 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.

The final result is 4671.278688 with a remainder of 3.2e-06.
