18740980 ÷ 588 
Our goal is to divide 18740980 by 588.

Let's proceed to step 1:
588 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 588

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 588, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 187 / 588

Advancing to step 3:
187 divided by 588 is 0 with a remainder of 187.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 187 to get 187.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 187 and continue: 1874 / 588

Step 4:
588 goes into 1874 3 times with a remainder of 110.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 1764 away from 1874, we end up with 110.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 110 and continue: 1100 / 588

Advancing to step 5:
588 can be fit into 1100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 512.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we take 588 away from 1100, we end up with 512.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 512 and continue: 5129 / 588

Moving on to step 6:
588 can be fit into 5129 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 425.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 318.0
If we take 4704 away from 5129, we end up with 425.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 425 and continue with: 4258 / 588

Advancing to step 7:
588 goes into 4258 7 times with a remainder of 142.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3187.0
If we subtract 4116 from 4258, we get 142.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 142, then repeat: 1420 / 588

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 1420 by 588, we get 2 and a remainder of 244.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 31872.0
The remainder is 244 after subtracting 1176 from 1420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Step 9:
588 can be fit into 2440 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 88.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31872.4
If we take 2352 away from 2440, we end up with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 588 fits into 880 1 times, leaving a remainder of 292.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31872.41
If we subtract 588 from 880, we get 292.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2920, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
588 can be fit into 2920 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 568.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31872.414
Subtract 2352 from 2920 to get 568.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 5680 by 588, we get 9 and a remainder of 388.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31872.4149
Subtracting 5292 from 5680 leaves us with 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Step 13:
3880 divided by 588 is 6 with a remainder of 352.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31872.41496
If we subtract 3528 from 3880, we get 352.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 3520 by 588, we get 5 and a remainder of 580.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 31872.414965
Subtracting 2940 from 3520 leaves us with 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
588 goes into 5800 9 times with a remainder of 508.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31872.4149659
The remainder is 508 after subtracting 5292 from 5800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5080, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
588 can be fit into 5080 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 376.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31872.41496598
If we subtract 4704 from 5080, we get 376.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3760, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 31872.41496598, and the remainder is 3.76e-07.
