We divide 308698 by 15
We want to figure out the number of times 308698 can be divided by 15.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 15 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 30 / 15

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 30 by 15, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 30 from 30 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 15

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 8 by 15, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 86 / 15

Let's proceed to step 4:
86 divided by 15 is 5 with a remainder of 11.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 205.0
Subtract 75 from 86 to get 11.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 119 / 15

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 119 by 15, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2057.0
Subtracting 105 from 119 leaves us with 14.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 148 / 15

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 148 by 15, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20579.0
If we subtract 135 from 148, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
130 divided by 15 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20579.8
Subtracting 120 from 130 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
15 goes into 100 6 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20579.86
If we subtract 90 from 100, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
15 can be fit into 100 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20579.866
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 90 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 20579.866 with a balance of 0.001.
