We're dividing 158994 by 7 
We want to divide 158994 by 7.

On to step 1:
The number 7 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 7

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 15 by 7, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 14 from 15, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 7

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 18 by 7, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we subtract 14 from 18, we get 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 7

Moving on to step 4:
49 divided by 7 is 7 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 227.0
Subtracting 49 from 49 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 9 / 7

Going ahead to step 5:
7 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2271.0
Subtract 7 from 9 to get 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 7

Advancing to step 6:
7 goes into 24 3 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22713.0
Deduct 21 from 24 and we're left 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.

Step 7:
The number 7 fits into 30 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22713.4
Deduct 28 from 30 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 7, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22713.42
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 14 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
7 goes into 60 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22713.428
If we subtract 56 from 60, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 7 fits into 40 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22713.4285
If we take 35 away from 40, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
50 divided by 7 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22713.42857
If we take 49 away from 50, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 12:
7 can be fit into 10 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22713.428571
Subtracting 7 from 10 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 13:
7 goes into 30 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22713.4285714
If we subtract 28 from 30, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22713.42857142
Subtracting 14 from 20 leaves us 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.

The final result is 22713.42857142 with a remainder of 6e-09.
