Let's divide 159578 by 2
We want to figure out the number of times 159578 can be divided by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 2

On to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 2, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 14 from 15 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 2

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 19 by 2, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 79.0
Deduct 18 from 19 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 2

On to step 4:
2 goes into 15 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 797.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 14 from 15.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 2

Advancing to step 5:
17 divided by 2 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7978.0
If we take 16 away from 17, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 2

Let's proceed to step 6:
2 goes into 18 9 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 79789.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 79789.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 79789.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 79789.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
