We're dividing 8707462 by 159 
Our goal is to divide 8707462 by 159.

Advancing to step 1:
159 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 159

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 159, we get 0 with a remainder of 87.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 87 after subtracting 0 from 87.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 87, then repeat: 870 / 159

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 870 by 159, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 795 from 870 to get 75.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 75, then repeat: 757 / 159

Step 4:
The number 159 fits into 757 4 times, leaving a remainder of 121.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtract 636 from 757 to get 121.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 121, then repeat: 1214 / 159

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 1214 by 159, we get 7 with a remainder of 101.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 547.0
Subtracting 1113 from 1214 leaves us with 101.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 101 and repeat the process: 1016 / 159

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 1016 by 159, we get 6 with a remainder of 62.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5476.0
Subtracting 954 from 1016 leaves us with 62.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 622 / 159

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 622 by 159, we get 3 and a remainder of 145.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 54763.0
If we subtract 477 from 622, we get 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 159 fits into 1450 9 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54763.9
If we subtract 1431 from 1450, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 190 by 159, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54763.91
Subtracting 159 from 190 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 310 by 159, we get 1 with a remainder of 151.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 54763.911
Subtract 159 from 310 to get 151.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1510, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 54763.911, with a leftover of 0.0151.
