\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}\phantom{1}\\15\overline{)15}\\\end{array}
Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 15
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}0\phantom{2}\\15\overline{)15}\\\end{array}
Since 1 is less than 15, use the next digit 5 from dividend 15 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}0\phantom{3}\\15\overline{)15}\\\end{array}
Use the 2^{nd} digit 5 from dividend 15
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}01\phantom{4}\\15\overline{)15}\\\phantom{15)}\underline{\phantom{}15\phantom{}}\\\phantom{15)99}0\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 15 to 15. We see that 1 \times 15 = 15 is the nearest. Now subtract 15 from 15 to get reminder 0. Add 1 to quotient.
\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }0
Since 0 is less than 15, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.
