We divide 42906215 by 159
We're looking to find how many times 159 goes into 42906215.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 159, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 159

Going ahead to step 2:
42 divided by 159 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 42, we get 42.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 429 / 159

Step 3:
159 goes into 429 2 times with a remainder of 111.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 318 from 429, we get 111.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 111, then repeat: 1110 / 159

Advancing to step 4:
1110 divided by 159 is 6 with a remainder of 156.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 954 from 1110, we get 156.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 156 and repeat the process: 1566 / 159

Advancing to step 5:
The number 159 fits into 1566 9 times, leaving a remainder of 135.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 269.0
If we take 1431 away from 1566, we end up with 135.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 135 and continue with: 1352 / 159

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 1352 by 159, we get 8 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2698.0
Subtracting 1272 from 1352 leaves us with 80.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 80 and continue with: 801 / 159

Going ahead to step 7:
159 goes into 801 5 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26985.0
If we take 795 away from 801, we end up with 6.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 65 / 159

Advancing to step 8:
65 divided by 159 is 0 with a remainder of 65.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 269850.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 0 from 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 159 fits into 650 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 269850.4
Subtracting 636 from 650 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 159 fits into 140 0 times, leaving a remainder of 140.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 269850.4
If we take 0 away from 140, we end up with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
1400 divided by 159 is 8 with a remainder of 128.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 269850.408
If we subtract 1272 from 1400, we get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 159 fits into 1280 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 269850.4088
Subtract 1272 from 1280 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 269850.4088 and a remainder of 8e-05.
