We look at the division of 495979 by 61 
We're looking to find how many times 61 goes into 495979.

Going ahead to step 1:
61 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 61

Going ahead to step 2:
61 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 495 / 61

On to step 3:
The number 61 fits into 495 8 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 488 from 495 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 61

Advancing to step 4:
61 goes into 79 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81.0
Subtracting 61 from 79 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 187 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
61 can be fit into 187 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 813.0
Deduct 183 from 187 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 61

Going ahead to step 6:
61 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8130.0
If we subtract 0 from 49, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 490 by 61, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8130.8
Subtract 488 from 490 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 61 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8130.8
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 61, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8130.803
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 183 from 200.
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 10:
When dividing 170 by 61, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8130.8032
If we take 122 away from 170, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
61 goes into 480 7 times with a remainder of 53.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8130.80327
Deduct 427 from 480 and we're left with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
61 goes into 530 8 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8130.803278
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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 420 by 61, we get 6 with a remainder of 54.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8130.8032786
Deduct 366 from 420 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
540 divided by 61 is 8 with a remainder of 52.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8130.80327868
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.

After the division, we end up with 8130.80327868 and a remainder of 5.2e-08.
