We're dividing 687978 by 60 
We're looking to find how many times 60 goes into 687978.

Going ahead to step 1:
6 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 60

Step 2:
If we divide 68 by 60, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 60 away from 68, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 60

On to step 3:
60 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 60 away from 87, we end up with 27.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 279 / 60

On to step 4:
279 divided by 60 is 4 with a remainder of 39.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 114.0
Subtract 240 from 279 to get 39.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 397 / 60

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 397 by 60, we get 6 and a remainder of 37.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1146.0
Deduct 360 from 397 and we're left with 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 60

Going ahead to step 6:
378 divided by 60 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11466.0
Deduct 360 from 378 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.

On to step 7:
The number 60 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11466.3
Subtract 180 from 180 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
0 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11466.3
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
60 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11466.3
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 11466.3 with a remainder of 0.0.
