We look at the division of 218869 by 61 
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 218869.

Advancing to step 1:
61 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 61

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 61 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 218 / 61

On to step 3:
61 can be fit into 218 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 183 from 218 and we're left with 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 61

Let's proceed to step 4:
358 divided by 61 is 5 with a remainder of 53.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 305 from 358, we get 53.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 536 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 536 by 61, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 358.0
Subtract 488 from 536 to get 48.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 489 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
489 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3588.0
Deduct 488 from 489 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
10 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3588.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
100 divided by 61 is 1 with a remainder of 39.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3588.01
Deduct 61 from 100 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 390 by 61, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3588.016
If we take 366 away from 390, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
61 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 57.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3588.0163
If we take 183 away from 240, we end up with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 61 fits into 570 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3588.01639
If we take 549 away from 570, 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 61 fits into 210 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3588.016393
Deduct 183 from 210 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
61 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3588.0163934
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 244 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 61 fits into 260 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3588.01639344
If we take 244 away from 260, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3588.01639344, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
