217746 ÷ 61 
We want to divide 217746 by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
61 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 61

On to step 2:
The number 61 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 61

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 217 by 61, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 183 away from 217, we end up with 34.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 347 / 61

Step 4:
61 can be fit into 347 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we take 305 away from 347, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 424 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 61 fits into 424 6 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 356.0
Deduct 366 from 424 and we're left with 58.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 586 / 61

Advancing to step 6:
586 divided by 61 is 9 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3569.0
If we subtract 549 from 586, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 7:
61 goes into 370 6 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3569.6
If we take 366 away from 370, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 61, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3569.6
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
400 divided by 61 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3569.606
If we take 366 away from 400, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 61 fits into 340 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3569.6065
If we subtract 305 from 340, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 350 by 61, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3569.60655
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 305 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3569.60655 with a balance of 4.5e-05.
