Let's divide 172711 by 61
We want to divide 172711 by 61.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 61

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 172 / 61

Going ahead to step 3:
61 goes into 172 2 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 122 from 172, we get 50.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 507 / 61

Let's proceed to step 4:
61 can be fit into 507 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 488 from 507 leaves us with 19.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 191 / 61

Advancing to step 5:
61 can be fit into 191 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 283.0
Subtracting 183 from 191 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 61

Advancing to step 6:
61 goes into 81 1 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2831.0
If we subtract 61 from 81, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 61, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2831.3
If we take 183 away from 200, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 170 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2831.32
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 122 from 170.
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:
If we divide 480 by 61, we get 7 and a remainder of 53.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2831.327
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 427 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 530 by 61, we get 8 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2831.3278
Subtracting 488 from 530 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.

Moving on to step 11:
61 goes into 420 6 times with a remainder of 54.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2831.32786
Subtracting 366 from 420 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
61 can be fit into 540 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2831.327868
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
520 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2831.3278688
Deduct 488 from 520 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 2831.3278688 and a remainder of 3.2e-07.
