We divide 61724 by 8
We want to divide 61724 by 8.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 61 / 8

Advancing to step 2:
The number 8 fits into 61 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 56 from 61 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 8

Going ahead to step 3:
8 goes into 57 7 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 77.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 56 from 57.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 8

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 8 fits into 12 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 771.0
Subtract 8 from 12 to get 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
8 can be fit into 44 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7715.0
Deduct 40 from 44 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7715.5
Subtract 40 from 40 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7715.5
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7715.5
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 7715.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
