We're dividing 156844 by 82 
We want to divide 156844 by 82.

Step 1:
The number 82 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 82

On to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 0 from 15.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 156 / 82

On to step 3:
82 goes into 156 1 times with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 82 from 156 and we're left with 74.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 74, then repeat: 748 / 82

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 748 by 82, we get 9 with a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Deduct 738 from 748 and we're left with 10.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 104 / 82

Let's proceed to step 5:
82 goes into 104 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 191.0
Subtract 82 from 104 to get 22.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 224 / 82

Step 6:
224 divided by 82 is 2 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1912.0
Subtracting 164 from 224 leaves us with 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 7:
The number 82 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1912.7
Subtracting 574 from 600 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 82 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1912.73
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 246 from 260.
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 9:
82 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1912.731
Subtracting 82 from 140 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
82 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1912.7317
Deduct 574 from 580 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 82 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1912.7317
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 12:
600 divided by 82 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1912.731707
Subtract 574 from 600 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
260 divided by 82 is 3 with a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1912.7317073
If we take 246 away from 260, 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 14:
When dividing 140 by 82, we get 1 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1912.73170731
If we subtract 82 from 140, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1912.73170731 and a remainder of 5.8e-08.
