We look at the division of 156988 by 14 
We're looking to find how many times 14 goes into 156988.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 14, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 14

Moving on to step 2:
The number 14 fits into 15 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 14 from 15 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 14

Going ahead to step 3:
14 can be fit into 16 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 14 from 16, we get 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 14

Advancing to step 4:
14 goes into 29 2 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 112.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 28 from 29.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 14

Let's proceed to step 5:
14 can be fit into 18 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1121.0
If we subtract 14 from 18, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 14

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 48 by 14, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11213.0
If we subtract 42 from 48, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 14 fits into 60 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11213.4
Subtracting 56 from 60 leaves us with 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 8:
The number 14 fits into 40 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11213.42
Deduct 28 from 40 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 120 by 14, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11213.428
Subtracting 112 from 120 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
80 divided by 14 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11213.4285
If we subtract 70 from 80, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 100 by 14, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11213.42857
Subtract 98 from 100 to 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 20 by 14, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11213.428571
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.

Advancing to step 13:
14 goes into 60 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11213.4285714
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 56 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 14 fits into 40 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11213.42857142
Subtracting 28 from 40 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final result is 11213.42857142 with a remainder of 1.2e-08.
