We're dividing 740429 by 61 
Let's see how many times 61 fits into 740429.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 61

Advancing to step 2:
61 can be fit into 74 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 61 from 74.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 130 / 61

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 130 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 122 away from 130, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 84 / 61

Moving on to step 4:
The number 61 fits into 84 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 121.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 61 from 84.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 232 / 61

Advancing to step 5:
61 can be fit into 232 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1213.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 183 from 232.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 49 and continue with: 499 / 61

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 499 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 11.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12138.0
Subtracting 488 from 499 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
61 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12138.1
Deduct 61 from 110 and we're left 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 8:
61 can be fit into 490 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12138.18
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.

Moving on to step 9:
20 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12138.18
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
61 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12138.1803
Subtracting 183 from 200 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 170 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12138.18032
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.

Step 12:
480 divided by 61 is 7 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12138.180327
Deduct 427 from 480 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
530 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12138.1803278
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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 420 by 61, we get 6 with a remainder of 54.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12138.18032786
If we take 366 away from 420, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12138.18032786 with a balance of 5.4e-08.
