Let's divide 242564 by 15
We want to figure out the number of times 242564 can be divided by 15.

Let's proceed to step 1:
15 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 15

Advancing to step 2:
The number 15 fits into 24 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 15 from 24 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 92 / 15

Step 3:
If we divide 92 by 15, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 90 from 92, we get 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 15

Let's proceed to step 4:
15 can be fit into 25 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 161.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 15 from 25.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 106 / 15

Step 5:
The number 15 fits into 106 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1617.0
Subtract 105 from 106 to get 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 15

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 15 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16170.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
15 goes into 140 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16170.9
If we take 135 away from 140, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
50 divided by 15 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16170.93
Subtract 45 from 50 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
50 divided by 15 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16170.933
Subtracting 45 from 50 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 16170.933 with a balance of 0.0005.
