Let's divide 616542 by 10
We want to divide 616542 by 10.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 10 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 61 / 10

Advancing to step 2:
The number 10 fits into 61 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 60 away from 61, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 10

Step 3:
10 goes into 16 1 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtract 10 from 16 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 10

Advancing to step 4:
The number 10 fits into 65 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 616.0
Subtracting 60 from 65 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 10

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 54 by 10, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6165.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 50 from 54.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 42 / 10

Step 6:
42 divided by 10 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61654.0
If we subtract 40 from 42, we 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.

On to step 7:
20 divided by 10 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61654.2
Subtract 20 from 20 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 0 by 10, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 61654.2
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 0 by 10, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61654.2
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 61654.2, with a leftover of 0.0.
