We look at the division of 240355 by 61 
We want to figure out the number of times 240355 can be divided by 61.

Step 1:
2 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 61

Going ahead to step 2:
61 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 240 / 61

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 240 by 61, we get 3 and a remainder of 57.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 183 from 240 to get 57.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 573 / 61

On to step 4:
If we divide 573 by 61, we get 9 and a remainder of 24.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39.0
Deduct 549 from 573 and we're left with 24.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 245 / 61

On to step 5:
If we divide 245 by 61, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 394.0
If we subtract 244 from 245, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 61

Let's proceed to step 6:
61 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3940.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 150 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3940.2
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 122 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
61 can be fit into 280 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3940.24
Deduct 244 from 280 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
61 can be fit into 360 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3940.245
Subtract 305 from 360 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 550 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3940.2459
Subtracting 549 from 550 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 61 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3940.2459
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
100 divided by 61 is 1 with a remainder of 39.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3940.245901
Subtracting 61 from 100 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 390 by 61, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3940.2459016
Subtract 366 from 390 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
61 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3940.24590163
If we take 183 away from 240, we end up with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3940.24590163, and the remainder is 5.7e-08.
