Moving on to step 4:
17 divided by 156 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 178 / 156

Moving on to step 5:
The number 156 fits into 178 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 301.0
If we subtract 156 from 178, we get 22.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 225 / 156

Step 6:
The number 156 fits into 225 1 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3011.0
Deduct 156 from 225 and we're left with 69.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 69, then repeat: 696 / 156

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 696 by 156, we get 4 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30114.0
If we subtract 624 from 696, we get 72.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 721 / 156

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 721 by 156, we get 4 with a remainder of 97.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 301144.0
Subtract 624 from 721 to get 97.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 970, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 970 by 156, we get 6 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 301144.6
Subtracting 936 from 970 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
340 divided by 156 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 301144.62
Subtract 312 from 340 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
156 goes into 280 1 times with a remainder of 124.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 301144.621
Deduct 156 from 280 and we're left with 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 1240 by 156, we get 7 and a remainder of 148.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 301144.6217
Deduct 1092 from 1240 and we're left with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 1480 by 156, we get 9 with a remainder of 76.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 301144.62179
Deduct 1404 from 1480 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
156 can be fit into 760 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 301144.621794
If we subtract 624 from 760, we get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 1360 by 156, we get 8 and a remainder of 112.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 301144.6217948
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 1248 from 1360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
If we divide 1120 by 156, we get 7 and a remainder of 28.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 301144.62179487
Deduct 1092 from 1120 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 301144.62179487 with a remaining 2.8e-08.
