159856 divided by 61 
We want to figure out the number of times 159856 can be divided by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
61 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 61

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 61 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 61

Step 3:
If we divide 159 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 122 away from 159, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 61

Let's proceed to step 4:
378 divided by 61 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 366 from 378.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 125 / 61

On to step 5:
If we divide 125 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 262.0
Subtracting 122 from 125 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 36 / 61

Let's proceed to step 6:
36 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 36.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2620.0
Deduct 0 from 36 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 360 by 61, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2620.5
Subtracting 305 from 360 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 550 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2620.59
Subtract 549 from 550 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 10 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2620.59
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 61, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2620.5901
If we take 61 away from 100, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
61 can be fit into 390 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2620.59016
If we take 366 away from 390, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
61 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2620.590163
Subtracting 183 from 240 leaves us with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
61 can be fit into 570 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2620.5901639
If we subtract 549 from 570, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 210 by 61, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2620.59016393
Subtracting 183 from 210 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2620.59016393, and the remainder is 2.7e-08.
