6537989 ÷ 178 
Our goal is to divide 6537989 by 178.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 divided by 178 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 65 / 178

Let's proceed to step 2:
65 divided by 178 is 0 with a remainder of 65.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 65, we get 65.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 65 and repeat the process: 653 / 178

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 653 by 178, we get 3 with a remainder of 119.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 534 from 653 to get 119.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 119, then carry on: 1197 / 178

Step 4:
178 goes into 1197 6 times with a remainder of 129.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 1068 away from 1197, we end up with 129.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 129, then carry on: 1299 / 178

Moving on to step 5:
1299 divided by 178 is 7 with a remainder of 53.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 367.0
If we take 1246 away from 1299, we end up with 53.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 538 / 178

Going ahead to step 6:
538 divided by 178 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3673.0
Subtract 534 from 538 to get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 178

On to step 7:
178 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 36730.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
178 can be fit into 490 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 134.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 36730.2
Subtracting 356 from 490 leaves us with 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
1340 divided by 178 is 7 with a remainder of 94.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36730.27
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 1246 from 1340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
940 divided by 178 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 36730.275
If we subtract 890 from 940, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 500 by 178, we get 2 with a remainder of 144.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36730.2752
If we subtract 356 from 500, we get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 178 fits into 1440 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36730.27528
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 1424 from 1440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
178 can be fit into 160 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 160.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36730.27528
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 0 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 1600 by 178, we get 8 with a remainder of 176.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36730.2752808
If we take 1424 away from 1600, we end up with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Step 15:
1760 divided by 178 is 9 with a remainder of 158.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36730.27528089
The remainder is 158 after subtracting 1602 from 1760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1580, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 36730.27528089 with a balance of 1.58e-07.
