We divide 74856 by 61
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 74856.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 61

Step 2:
When dividing 74 by 61, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 61 from 74, we get 13.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 138 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
61 can be fit into 138 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 122 from 138 to get 16.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 165 / 61

On to step 4:
165 divided by 61 is 2 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122.0
Subtract 122 from 165 to get 43.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 436 / 61

Let's proceed to step 5:
436 divided by 61 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1227.0
If we take 427 away from 436, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
90 divided by 61 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1227.1
If we take 61 away from 90, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
290 divided by 61 is 4 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1227.14
If we take 244 away from 290, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
460 divided by 61 is 7 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1227.147
Subtracting 427 from 460 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
61 can be fit into 330 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1227.1475
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 305 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
250 divided by 61 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1227.14754
Deduct 244 from 250 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 61 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1227.14754
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
61 can be fit into 600 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1227.1475409
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 549 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Step 13:
61 goes into 510 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1227.14754098
Deduct 488 from 510 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1227.14754098 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
