Let's divide 2987425 by 156
We want to figure out the number of times 2987425 can be divided by 156.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 156 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 156

Advancing to step 2:
156 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 156

Going ahead to step 3:
156 goes into 298 1 times with a remainder of 142.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 156 from 298, we get 142.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 142, then repeat: 1427 / 156

On to step 4:
156 goes into 1427 9 times with a remainder of 23.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 1404 from 1427.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 234 / 156

Moving on to step 5:
156 can be fit into 234 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 191.0
Subtracting 156 from 234 leaves us with 78.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 78, then carry on: 782 / 156

Step 6:
The number 156 fits into 782 5 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1915.0
Subtracting 780 from 782 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 156

On to step 7:
25 divided by 156 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19150.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
156 can be fit into 250 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 94.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19150.1
Subtracting 156 from 250 leaves us with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 940 by 156, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19150.16
Subtract 936 from 940 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 40 by 156, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19150.16
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
156 can be fit into 400 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 19150.1602
Subtract 312 from 400 to get 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Step 12:
880 divided by 156 is 5 with a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 19150.16025
Subtract 780 from 880 to get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
1000 divided by 156 is 6 with a remainder of 64.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19150.160256
If we take 936 away from 1000, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 640 by 156, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19150.1602564
If we subtract 624 from 640, we 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.

Going ahead to step 15:
160 divided by 156 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19150.16025641
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 19150.16025641, with a leftover of 4e-09.
