We divide 159559 by 85
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 159559.

Moving on to step 1:
1 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 85, 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 (9) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 159 / 85

On to step 3:
159 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 74.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 85 from 159 to get 74.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 745 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 745 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 680 from 745 to get 65.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 65 and repeat the process: 655 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 655 7 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187.0
Subtract 595 from 655 to get 60.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 609 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 609 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1877.0
If we take 595 away from 609, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 7:
85 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1877.1
If we subtract 85 from 140, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 550 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1877.16
Subtracting 510 from 550 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 60.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1877.164
If we subtract 340 from 400, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1877.1647
Deduct 595 from 600 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1877.1647
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1877.164705
If we take 425 away from 500, we end up with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1877.1647058
Subtracting 680 from 750 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 700 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1877.16470588
If we subtract 680 from 700, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1877.16470588 and a remainder of 2e-08.
