We divide 159993 by 84
We want to divide 159993 by 84.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 84 fits into 1 0 times, leaving 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.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 84

On to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, we get 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 84

Advancing to step 3:
84 can be fit into 159 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 84 from 159 and we're left with 75.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 75, then repeat: 759 / 84

Advancing to step 4:
84 can be fit into 759 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Deduct 756 from 759 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 39 / 84

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 39 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 190.0
Subtract 0 from 39 to get 39.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 393 / 84

Going ahead to step 6:
84 goes into 393 4 times with a remainder of 57.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1904.0
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 336 from 393.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 570 by 84, we get 6 with a remainder of 66.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1904.6
If we take 504 away from 570, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 660 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1904.67
Subtracting 588 from 660 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 720 by 84, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1904.678
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 672 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
480 divided by 84 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1904.6785
Subtract 420 from 480 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 600 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1904.67857
If we take 588 away from 600, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
120 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1904.678571
If we subtract 84 from 120, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 360 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1904.6785714
Subtract 336 from 360 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 240 by 84, we get 2 and a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1904.67857142
If we take 168 away from 240, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1904.67857142 with a balance of 7.2e-08.
