Let's divide 159 by 60
We want to divide 159 by 60.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 60 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 60

Step 2:
15 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 159 / 60

Advancing to step 3:
159 divided by 60 is 2 with a remainder of 39.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 120 from 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 4:
60 goes into 390 6 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.6
Subtract 360 from 390 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 5:
60 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.65
Deduct 300 from 300 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
60 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2.65
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
0 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2.65
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2.65, and the remainder is 0.0.
