We divide 127989 by 61
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 127989.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 61

Let's proceed to step 2:
12 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 127 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
61 goes into 127 2 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 122 from 127 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
61 can be fit into 59 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 59, we get 59.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 598 / 61

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 598 by 61, we get 9 and a remainder of 49.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 209.0
Subtract 549 from 598 to get 49.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 499 / 61

Let's proceed to step 6:
499 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2098.0
If we take 488 away from 499, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
61 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2098.1
If we subtract 61 from 110, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
490 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2098.18
Subtracting 488 from 490 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
61 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2098.18
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 61, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2098.1803
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 183 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 170 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2098.18032
If we subtract 122 from 170, we 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 12:
61 goes into 480 7 times with a remainder of 53.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2098.180327
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 13:
If we divide 530 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 42.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2098.1803278
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 488 from 530.
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 14:
61 can be fit into 420 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2098.18032786
Subtract 366 from 420 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2098.18032786 with a remaining 5.4e-08.
