We divide 158901 by 57
Let's see how many times 57 fits into 158901.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 57, 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.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 57

Let's proceed to step 2:
57 goes into 15 0 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 158 / 57

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 57 fits into 158 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 114 from 158 and we're left with 44.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 449 / 57

Let's proceed to step 4:
449 divided by 57 is 7 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we subtract 399 from 449, we get 50.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 500 / 57

On to step 5:
The number 57 fits into 500 8 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 278.0
Subtract 456 from 500 to get 44.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 441 / 57

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 57 fits into 441 7 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2787.0
Subtract 399 from 441 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 420 by 57, we get 7 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2787.7
Subtracting 399 from 420 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 210 by 57, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2787.73
If we subtract 171 from 210, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
57 goes into 390 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2787.736
Subtract 342 from 390 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 57 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2787.7368
Deduct 456 from 480 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 57, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2787.73684
If we take 228 away from 240, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 120 by 57, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2787.736842
If we take 114 away from 120, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 57, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2787.7368421
Subtracting 57 from 60 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
57 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2787.7368421
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

The final result is 2787.7368421 with a remainder of 3e-08.
