We divide 486993 by 61
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 486993.

Let's proceed to step 1:
61 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 61

Advancing to step 2:
61 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 486 / 61

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 486 by 61, we get 7 with a remainder of 59.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 427 from 486, we get 59.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 59, then repeat: 599 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
61 goes into 599 9 times with a remainder of 50.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 79.0
Deduct 549 from 599 and we're left with 50.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 509 / 61

Step 5:
If we divide 509 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 798.0
Subtracting 488 from 509 leaves us with 21.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 213 / 61

On to step 6:
The number 61 fits into 213 3 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7983.0
Subtract 183 from 213 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 7:
61 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 56.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7983.4
If we take 244 away from 300, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 61 fits into 560 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7983.49
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 549 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
61 goes into 110 1 times with a remainder of 49.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7983.491
If we take 61 away from 110, we end up with 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 10:
The number 61 fits into 490 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7983.4918
Subtract 488 from 490 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 11:
61 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7983.4918
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 61 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7983.491803
Subtract 183 from 200 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
61 can be fit into 170 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7983.4918032
If we take 122 away from 170, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
480 divided by 61 is 7 with a remainder of 53.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7983.49180327
Subtract 427 from 480 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 7983.49180327, with a leftover of 5.3e-08.
