Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 156 / 29

Step 3:
The number 29 fits into 156 5 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 145 from 156 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 117 / 29

On to step 4:
117 divided by 29 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtracting 116 from 117 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 29

Moving on to step 5:
29 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 540.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 29

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 188 by 29, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5406.0
Deduct 174 from 188 and we're left 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:
The number 29 fits into 140 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5406.4
Subtracting 116 from 140 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
29 can be fit into 240 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5406.48
Subtract 232 from 240 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 29 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5406.482
Subtracting 58 from 80 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 29, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5406.4827
Subtract 203 from 220 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
29 goes into 170 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5406.48275
If we subtract 145 from 170, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
29 goes into 250 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5406.482758
Deduct 232 from 250 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
29 can be fit into 180 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5406.4827586
Deduct 174 from 180 and we're left 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 14:
29 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5406.48275862
Subtracting 58 from 60 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5406.48275862 with a remaining 2e-09.
