We're dividing 279424 by 62 
We want to figure out the number of times 279424 can be divided by 62.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 62 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 62

On to step 2:
27 divided by 62 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 62

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 279 by 62, we get 4 with a remainder of 31.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 248 from 279 leaves us with 31.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 314 / 62

Step 4:
If we divide 314 by 62, we get 5 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 45.0
Subtract 310 from 314 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 62

Advancing to step 5:
42 divided by 62 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 450.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 424 / 62

On to step 6:
424 divided by 62 is 6 with a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4506.0
Deduct 372 from 424 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 520 by 62, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4506.8
Subtracting 496 from 520 leaves us 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 8:
240 divided by 62 is 3 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4506.83
Deduct 186 from 240 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 62 fits into 540 8 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4506.838
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 496 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
62 goes into 440 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4506.8387
Subtract 434 from 440 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 60 by 62, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4506.8387
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 600 by 62, we get 9 with a remainder of 42.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4506.838709
Subtracting 558 from 600 leaves us with 42.
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 13:
The number 62 fits into 420 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4506.8387096
Subtracting 372 from 420 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
62 can be fit into 480 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4506.83870967
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 434 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The final result is 4506.83870967 with a remainder of 4.6e-08.
