We divide 85935977 by 159
We're looking to find how many times 159 goes into 85935977.

On to step 1:
159 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 159

Step 2:
The number 159 fits into 85 0 times, leaving a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 85, we end up with 85.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 85 and continue: 859 / 159

Advancing to step 3:
The number 159 fits into 859 5 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 795 from 859, we get 64.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 643 / 159

Step 4:
When dividing 643 by 159, we get 4 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 54.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 636 from 643.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 75 / 159

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 75 by 159, we get 0 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 540.0
If we take 0 away from 75, we end up with 75.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 75, then repeat: 759 / 159

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 759 by 159, we get 4 and a remainder of 123.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5404.0
Subtracting 636 from 759 leaves us with 123.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 123, then carry on: 1237 / 159

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 1237 by 159, we get 7 with a remainder of 124.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54047.0
If we take 1113 away from 1237, we end up with 124.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 124 and continue with: 1247 / 159

Step 8:
When dividing 1247 by 159, we get 7 with a remainder of 134.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 540477.0
Subtract 1113 from 1247 to get 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
1340 divided by 159 is 8 with a remainder of 68.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 540477.8
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 1272 from 1340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 10:
680 divided by 159 is 4 with a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 540477.84
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 636 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 440 by 159, we get 2 with a remainder of 122.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 540477.842
If we subtract 318 from 440, we get 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
159 goes into 1220 7 times with a remainder of 107.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 540477.8427
The remainder is 107 after subtracting 1113 from 1220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1070, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
159 can be fit into 1070 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 116.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 540477.84276
Subtracting 954 from 1070 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
159 can be fit into 1160 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 540477.842767
If we take 1113 away from 1160, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
159 goes into 470 2 times with a remainder of 152.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 540477.8427672
Subtract 318 from 470 to get 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 1520 by 159, we get 9 and a remainder of 89.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 540477.84276729
Deduct 1431 from 1520 and we're left with 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

The final result is 540477.84276729 with a remainder of 8.9e-08.
