We look at the division of 144559 by 71 
Our goal is to divide 144559 by 71.

On to step 1:
The number 71 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 71

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 0 from 14.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 144 / 71

Step 3:
The number 71 fits into 144 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 142 from 144.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 71

Step 4:
If we divide 25 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 255 / 71

Step 5:
If we divide 255 by 71, we get 3 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 203.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 213 from 255.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 71

On to step 6:
The number 71 fits into 429 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2036.0
If we take 426 away from 429, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
30 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2036.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
71 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2036.04
Deduct 284 from 300 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
71 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2036.042
If we take 142 away from 160, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 180 by 71, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2036.0422
Subtracting 142 from 180 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2036.0422 and a remainder of 0.00038.
