988342 ÷ 61 
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 988342.

Going ahead to step 1:
61 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 61

Step 2:
61 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 61 from 98, we get 37.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 378 / 61

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 378 by 61, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 366 from 378 and we're left with 12.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 123 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
61 goes into 123 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 162.0
Subtracting 122 from 123 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 61

Step 5:
61 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1620.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 142 / 61

Step 6:
If we divide 142 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16202.0
Subtract 122 from 142 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 61, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16202.3
Deduct 183 from 200 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
61 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16202.32
Deduct 122 from 170 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 480 by 61, we get 7 with a remainder of 53.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16202.327
If we subtract 427 from 480, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
530 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 16202.3278
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.

Advancing to step 11:
420 divided by 61 is 6 with a remainder of 54.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16202.32786
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 366 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 540 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16202.327868
If we subtract 488 from 540, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
61 goes into 520 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16202.3278688
Subtracting 488 from 520 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 16202.3278688 with a remaining 3.2e-07.
