Let's divide 478512 by 60
We want to divide 478512 by 60.

Step 1:
The number 60 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 60

Moving on to step 2:
47 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 47, we get 47.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 478 / 60

Moving on to step 3:
478 divided by 60 is 7 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 420 from 478.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 585 / 60

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 585 by 60, we get 9 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 79.0
Subtracting 540 from 585 leaves us with 45.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 451 / 60

Going ahead to step 5:
60 can be fit into 451 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 797.0
Deduct 420 from 451 and we're left with 31.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 312 / 60

Let's proceed to step 6:
312 divided by 60 is 5 with a remainder of 12.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7975.0
Deduct 300 from 312 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 120 by 60, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7975.2
If we take 120 away from 120, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 60, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7975.2
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
0 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7975.2
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.

Our division results in 7975.2 with a remaining 0.0.
