We look at the division of 279171 by 62 
We're looking to find how many times 62 goes into 279171.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 62, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 62

Moving on to step 2:
27 divided by 62 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 279 / 62

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 279 by 62, we get 4 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 248 from 279 leaves us with 31.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 311 / 62

Moving on to step 4:
62 can be fit into 311 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 45.0
Deduct 310 from 311 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 62

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 62 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 450.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 171 / 62

Let's proceed to step 6:
62 goes into 171 2 times with a remainder of 47.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4502.0
If we subtract 124 from 171, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
470 divided by 62 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4502.7
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 434 from 470.
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 8:
62 goes into 360 5 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4502.75
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 310 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 62 fits into 500 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4502.758
Subtract 496 from 500 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
62 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4502.758
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
400 divided by 62 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4502.75806
If we take 372 away from 400, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
280 divided by 62 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4502.758064
If we take 248 away from 280, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 62, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4502.7580645
Subtract 310 from 320 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 100 by 62, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4502.75806451
Subtract 62 from 100 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4502.75806451 and a remainder of 3.8e-08.
