We're dividing 616279 by 71 
We want to figure out the number of times 616279 can be divided by 71.

Advancing to step 1:
71 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 61 / 71

On to step 2:
If we divide 61 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 61 leaves us with 61.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 61, then carry on: 616 / 71

Step 3:
When dividing 616 by 71, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 568 from 616 leaves us with 48.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 482 / 71

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 482 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 86.0
If we subtract 426 from 482, we get 56.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 567 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 567 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 867.0
If we take 497 away from 567, we end up with 70.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 709 / 71

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 709 by 71, we get 9 with a remainder of 70.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8679.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 639 from 709.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 71 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 8679.9
Deduct 639 from 700 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 8:
71 goes into 610 8 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8679.98
If we subtract 568 from 610, we get 42.
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 9:
If we divide 420 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8679.985
Subtracting 355 from 420 leaves us with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 650 by 71, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8679.9859
Subtracting 639 from 650 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
110 divided by 71 is 1 with a remainder of 39.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8679.98591
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 71 from 110.
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 12:
When dividing 390 by 71, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8679.985915
Deduct 355 from 390 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 71 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8679.9859154
Deduct 284 from 350 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 14:
71 goes into 660 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8679.98591549
If we take 639 away from 660, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8679.98591549, and the remainder is 2.1e-08.
