Let's divide 159234 by 61
We want to figure out the number of times 159234 can be divided by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
61 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 61

On to step 2:
61 goes into 15 0 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, we get 15.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 159 / 61

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 159 by 61, we get 2 and a remainder of 37.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 122 away from 159, we end up with 37.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 372 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
61 goes into 372 6 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 366 from 372, we get 6.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 63 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 63 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 261.0
If we subtract 61 from 63, we get 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 61

Let's proceed to step 6:
61 goes into 24 0 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2610.0
Subtract 0 from 24 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
61 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 57.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2610.3
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 183 from 240.
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 8:
61 can be fit into 570 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2610.39
Subtracting 549 from 570 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
210 divided by 61 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2610.393
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 183 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
61 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2610.3934
Deduct 244 from 270 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 260 by 61, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2610.39344
Subtracting 244 from 260 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2610.39344 with a remaining 1.6e-05.
