259 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 259

On to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 259, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 401 / 259

Advancing to step 3:

Going ahead to step 7:
843 divided by 259 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15493.0
Subtract 777 from 843 to get 66.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 66 and continue: 667 / 259

Advancing to step 8:
259 can be fit into 667 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 149.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154932.0
Deduct 518 from 667 and we're left with 149.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
259 goes into 1490 5 times with a remainder of 195.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154932.5
If we subtract 1295 from 1490, we get 195.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
1950 divided by 259 is 7 with a remainder of 137.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154932.57
If we take 1813 away from 1950, we end up with 137.

Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 750 by 259, we get 2 with a remainder of 232.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154932.5752
Deduct 518 from 750 and we're left with 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:

The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 154932.57528
Deduct 2072 from 2320 and we're left with 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 259 fits into 2480 9 times, leaving a remainder of 149.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 154932.575289
Deduct 2331 from 2480 and we're left with 149.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
1490 divided by 259 is 5 with a remainder of 195.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 154932.5752895
