We divide 444485 by 159
We're looking to find how many times 159 goes into 444485.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 159, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 159

Moving on to step 2:
159 goes into 44 0 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 44 leaves us with 44.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 444 / 159

On to step 3:
When dividing 444 by 159, we get 2 with a remainder of 126.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 126 after subtracting 318 from 444.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 126 and continue with: 1264 / 159

On to step 4:
If we divide 1264 by 159, we get 7 and a remainder of 151.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Deduct 1113 from 1264 and we're left with 151.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 151 and repeat the process: 1518 / 159

Moving on to step 5:
The number 159 fits into 1518 9 times, leaving a remainder of 87.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 279.0
If we take 1431 away from 1518, we end up with 87.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 87 and continue with: 875 / 159

Let's proceed to step 6:
159 can be fit into 875 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2795.0
Deduct 795 from 875 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 800 by 159, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2795.5
If we take 795 away from 800, we end up 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 8:
When dividing 50 by 159, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2795.5
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
500 divided by 159 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2795.503
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 477 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 230 by 159, we get 1 with a remainder of 71.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2795.5031
Subtracting 159 from 230 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
159 goes into 710 4 times with a remainder of 74.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2795.50314
Deduct 636 from 710 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 740 by 159, we get 4 with a remainder of 104.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2795.503144
Deduct 636 from 740 and we're left with 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2795.503144 with a remaining 1.04e-05.
