152538 divided by 7 
Let's see how many times 7 fits into 152538.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 7 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
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 / 7

On to step 2:
7 can be fit into 15 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 14 from 15.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 7

Going ahead to step 3:
7 goes into 12 1 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 7 from 12, we get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 7

Going ahead to step 4:
7 goes into 55 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 217.0
Subtract 49 from 55 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 63 / 7

Advancing to step 5:
7 goes into 63 9 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2179.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 63 from 63.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 7

Let's proceed to step 6:
7 goes into 8 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21791.0
Subtracting 7 from 8 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 7 fits into 10 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21791.1
Subtracting 7 from 10 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 30 by 7, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21791.14
Subtract 28 from 30 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 9:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21791.142
If we take 14 away from 20, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 7 fits into 60 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21791.1428
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 40 by 7, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21791.14285
Subtracting 35 from 40 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 12:
7 can be fit into 50 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21791.142857
If we take 49 away from 50, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 10 by 7, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21791.1428571
If we subtract 7 from 10, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 30 by 7, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 21791.14285714
If we take 28 away from 30, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 21791.14285714 with a balance of 2e-09.
