We divide 156139 by 99
Our goal is to divide 156139 by 99.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 99

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 15 by 99, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 0 from 15.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 156 / 99

Let's proceed to step 3:
99 goes into 156 1 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 99 from 156 leaves us with 57.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 57 and repeat the process: 571 / 99

On to step 4:
99 goes into 571 5 times with a remainder of 76.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 495 from 571 to get 76.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 76 and continue with: 763 / 99

Moving on to step 5:
The number 99 fits into 763 7 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we take 693 away from 763, we end up with 70.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 70, then repeat: 709 / 99

On to step 6:
When dividing 709 by 99, we get 7 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1577.0
Deduct 693 from 709 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.

Step 7:
160 divided by 99 is 1 with a remainder of 61.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1577.1
Deduct 99 from 160 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
610 divided by 99 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1577.16
Subtract 594 from 610 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
99 goes into 160 1 times with a remainder of 61.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1577.161
Subtracting 99 from 160 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 610 by 99, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1577.1616
Deduct 594 from 610 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 11:
When dividing 160 by 99, we get 1 with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1577.16161
Subtracting 99 from 160 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 99 fits into 610 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1577.161616
If we take 594 away from 610, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 160 by 99, we get 1 with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1577.1616161
If we subtract 99 from 160, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 14:
99 can be fit into 610 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1577.16161616
Deduct 594 from 610 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.

After the division, we end up with 1577.16161616 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
