We're dividing 155717 by 71 
We're looking to find how many times 71 goes into 155717.

Let's proceed to step 1:
71 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 71

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 155 / 71

On to step 3:
71 goes into 155 2 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 142 from 155.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 137 / 71

Let's proceed to step 4:
137 divided by 71 is 1 with a remainder of 66.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 71 from 137 and we're left with 66.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 66, then repeat: 661 / 71

Moving on to step 5:
71 goes into 661 9 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 219.0
If we subtract 639 from 661, we get 22.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 71

On to step 6:
The number 71 fits into 227 3 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2193.0
If we subtract 213 from 227, we get 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:
71 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 69.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2193.1
If we subtract 71 from 140, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 8:
71 goes into 690 9 times with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2193.19
Subtract 639 from 690 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 510 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2193.197
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 497 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 130 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 59.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2193.1971
Subtract 71 from 130 to get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 71 fits into 590 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2193.19718
Deduct 568 from 590 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
71 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2193.197183
If we subtract 213 from 220, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
71 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2193.197183
If we subtract 0 from 70, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 700 by 71, we get 9 and a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2193.19718309
Deduct 639 from 700 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

The final result is 2193.19718309 with a remainder of 6.1e-08.
