Let's divide 155259 by 71
Let's see how many times 71 fits into 155259.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 71

Step 2:
If we divide 15 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 155 / 71

Step 3:
When dividing 155 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 142 away from 155, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 132 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 132 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 71 from 132.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 61, then repeat: 615 / 71

On to step 5:
When dividing 615 by 71, we get 8 with a remainder of 47.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 218.0
If we take 568 away from 615, we end up with 47.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 479 / 71

Step 6:
If we divide 479 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 53.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2186.0
Subtracting 426 from 479 leaves us with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
530 divided by 71 is 7 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2186.7
Subtracting 497 from 530 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 71 fits into 330 4 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2186.74
Subtract 284 from 330 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 460 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 34.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2186.746
Deduct 426 from 460 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
340 divided by 71 is 4 with a remainder of 56.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2186.7464
If we take 284 away from 340, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 560 by 71, we get 7 and a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2186.74647
Subtracting 497 from 560 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
71 goes into 630 8 times with a remainder of 62.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2186.746478
Subtract 568 from 630 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 620 by 71, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2186.7464788
Subtract 568 from 620 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2186.7464788 with a balance of 5.2e-07.
