We look at the division of 159012 by 55 
Our goal is to divide 159012 by 55.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 55

On to step 2:
55 goes into 15 0 times with a remainder of 15.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 55

Let's proceed to step 3:
159 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 49.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 110 from 159 to get 49.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 490 / 55

Step 4:
490 divided by 55 is 8 with a remainder of 50.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 440 away from 490, we end up with 50.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 501 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
501 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 289.0
If we subtract 495 from 501, we get 6.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 62 / 55

Step 6:
62 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2891.0
Subtracting 55 from 62 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
55 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2891.1
Subtract 55 from 70 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 55 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2891.12
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2891.127
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 55 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2891.1272
Deduct 110 from 150 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2891.12727
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 55 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2891.127272
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 400 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2891.1272727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2891.12727272
If we take 110 away from 150, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2891.12727272 and a remainder of 4e-08.
